how many people are on your animation team?

From what i have seen of the credits in the movies uploaded to Streamline, most teams have several if not 10 or more people working on their animation. I know our animator would be too modest to point this out, but he was really the only one who worked on our clip. He modeled, animated, rendered, everything. Are the credits just a little to generous in their inclusions, or do most teams really have many people working on their projects. BTW, i think ours is pretty good, you should check it out

Re: how many people are on your animation team?

Our team has only one person on the animation team. He gives credit to the student that helped him debug his animation and the student that wrote the music for it, but he is really the only one that did the animation. He won the visualization award at Pittsburgh last year & we gave him the extra trophy

This year we have eight (plus one or two others who made contributions) in animation. http://www.cybersonics.org/cybersoni.../members02.asp

We had 3 main people who made the animation, and one other who helped us put it all together at the end.

Re: how many people are on your animation team?

I am the soul animator for my team. Sound was done by another person but I supervised that and editing. All models, textures, etc., were sterenuously done by myself.

Very impressive for a solo project. I really liked the materials and lighting in your animation.

A big goose-egg. We have no animation at all.

Re: how many people are on your animation team?

We don't allow the mentors do the animation, or help on anything major. The mentors are allowed to help when asked how to do specific things, but they merely tell us what tool to use, and not how to use it. Unfortunetely, we had 5 students sign up to do the animation, and towards the end, it turned into 3 of us doing the whole animation. Due to time restrictions and excessive schoolwork, we were unable to finish the animation, with simply 3 students, without extensive 3DSM experience. We hope to get more students involved to help next year, and complete it in time to submit.

Re: how many people are on your animation team?

We had three main people (an animator, a modeler, and a lighting/sound person), but had a bunch of other people show up and help with specific parts, so the full animation team was more like 6 people, plus "quality control" and random grunt work people that were hanging around.
