Animation Video Needed

I am putting together a technical paper/user's guide on what is the best connector for 6 gage wire. In conjunction with that paper I'd like a video that shows how not a good thing it is to lift the battery by its wires. The battery posts can be easily stressed and open connection occurs inside the battery. I was thinking the animation could be an internal view of the battery with small characters trying to keep things together and working.

Does anybody have any ideas?

Re: Animation Video Needed

why not have the battery itself be a character, and have him screaming "OWWW OWWW OWWWW!!!!" when he is picked up by his wires, as if it were somebody having their hair pulled

Re: Animation Video Needed

Not that I'm volunteering anyone but I suggest you ask Roushey if he might have time to do it. That guy is wicked good at modeling and animating people.
