Get the Word of Animation Out!!!!

[Phoenix Spud]

One of my favorite parts of FIRST is the animation. While I don't animate, I have a huge amount of respect for everyone who does! This year was the first time 3132 submitted an animation, and I hope our animation sub-team knows how much respect I--and the rest of the team--have for them.

This goes for all FIRST animators! You guys are some of the "unsung" participants of FIRST. Thanks for all you do!

thanks phoenix!

I have worked on animation for the past 4 years and it feels like now that every year we get outshined by everything around us. No one knows or appreciates how hard we work and now I think its about time they heard us. I really am hoping to get a group large enough to grab the attention of FIRST or at the least Autodesk. So please SPREAD THE WORD!!!!

Thankfully, our team does appreciate us. I don't know why any team wouldn't. We work really hard for only a 30 second film. It's amazing how much time we spend on it.

True we do work hard. But it feels like everytime our team does an animation the parents, the mentors (that dont help) and others dont see how hard we work...sometimes I wonder if the team members even care about it.
