Animation Previews

[White_Orpheus]

One thing that has really bothered me about animation in FIRST is that the animators don't really group up across team lines. As far as the robot competition, people share ideas and plans all the time on this forum. I know no one really wants to tip their hand as to what they will be doing for their animation will be about, but I thought it would be nice if people actually shared some WIP shots and gave pointers to each other.

So, on that thread of working together, here's what we've worked out so far over here on Team 253


I've been working on a Bugatti Veyron, and my assistant has been doing a Ferrari Modena 360

The Bugatti:

I think it would be great if other animators started showing what work they had done, and discussing techniques with each other. For my part, if anyone wants to learn about modeling from schematics, or car modeling in general, feel free to drop me a line on AIM at ElFrijole12. Good luck to all of the other animation teams! If we can all produce really spectacular animations this year, maybe people will stand up and notice how much talent there is in the AVA competition.
