Thanks for the competition. Our team really had fun coming up with an idea and modeling the scenes. Creativity at it's best!

I'm hoping to view all of the submissions at some point, too. This development has been really fun to follow. Good luck to all of the teams who submitted to the competition!

Thank you! I thought the kids did a wonderful job this year. Some time they're going to have to explain to me how they do it.

New to posting here, but have read for several years.

First of all - a HUGE thank you to Team 116 for setting up the animation competition this year.
This years entry is posted here:

We had a lot of fun coming up with a concept and then creating it.

Team 525 has done animations for only 3 years and are finally getting to where we feel like we have some idea of what we are doing. At the start, none of the mentors or students had ever worked with this software. But, we had students who were interested, and so we went forth.

I would also agree that it would be nice if there was a list of where all of the animations could be viewed.

The Team 20 animators truly appreciated the contest that 116 set up this year. With three years of strong animation prior to this and several students joining the team specifically for animation this year, it would have been a real shame if there were no contest.

This is our 2013 submission (we had some fun with this one): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7k9NcBtip00

[116anim_award]

Hello everyone! We are pleased to inform you that the popular voting page is up and running!

It can be found here: http://animationsrus.org/vote.php

We encourage all teams to vote on their favorite animations and also encourage other teams to do so as well. It takes about 35 minutes or so to go through all 22 submissions, so we ask that everyone look through them all before making a decision. Remember that each team only has one vote, so choose wisely.

The deadline for voting is April 15th. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the voting process, you can put them here, PM us, or email us at team116animationaward@gmail.com

Just a quick reminder that voting for the Underground Society of Animators (USA) Excellence in Animation Award (EAA) is open through next Monday, April 15. Each team in the FIRST community gets to cast one vote for the Creativity Award. Note that the voting is open to ALL teams – even if you did not submit an animation for the contest. You can vote here - http://animationsrus.org/vote.php

And thanks to Frank Merrick for including a mention of the USA award project in this week’s FRC Blog.

Also, our plan is to present the awards at the FRC Championship in St Louis in a few weeks. Because this is not an official FIRST award (this year – keep your fingers crossed for next year), it won’t be presented from the big stage. We are working on the venue and timing for the presentation of the award, and have a few cool options. We will keep everyone posted, and hope to announce that part in the next day or two.

Just an update on this item. The Underground Society of Animators (USA) Excellence in Animation Awards will be presented at the beginning of the FIRST Has Talent show on Saturday evening of the FIRST Championship weekend. We hope that many of the animation competitors will be present in St Louis, and that everyone will have a chance to show their appreciation for their efforts in person.
