Hi guys, my name is Cody Smith. I was given the amazing opportunity to create the 2009-2010 Vex game animation after winning the "Design a Game Animation" online challenge with my submission, Tetra Triad.

Both animations can be found on my company website: http://Polynomic3D.com/gallery.php5

I worked through the entire summer to put Clean Sweep together with very few resources and next to no help. I know that there were a few issues with that animation, most of them were due to a last minute crisis.

Thanks so much for your support!

I was purposely told, by IFI, to make robots that could complete the challenge but would not give away potential designs. I am not a fan of FIRST's plunger and/or boot kicker robots. I attempted to combine realistic looking robots with unrealistic mechanisms so that both my client and the viewers would be happy.

I still owe you that cookie! I was volunteering at the Disney event, lots of fun and overall the competitions went rather well.
