Re: So who's going to submit a safety animation?

Still chugging away at this, It wont get done for the safety animation but I was expecting that. I fear that it wont get done in time for the AVA. I have so much that needs touching up.

Re: So who's going to submit a safety animation?

Yay for deadline extensions! I suppose its time I make my first post somewhere on this vast information exchange. Out team (1643) had two animators, both rather inexperianced, but we are happy with our result. This is the first time either of us (Him and I) actually completed something to submit.

Re: So who's going to submit a safety animation?

Well.. thank god for the deadline extension, our team wouldn't have made it in time to finish the safety animation. Speaking of animations, it's been such a long time since we did submit.. anything. Meh, but our safety animation is really something! I can't wait to see what other teams have to submit. The characters in our animation are soooooo cute!

On a side note: BuddyB's model gave me the finger. D:

Re: So who's going to submit a safety animation?

This is the first year our team is entering the safety animation contest, and I have some questions. What is the format that the animation should be in on the dvd? Do we just put the file on a dvd or does it have to play automatically like the movies you get from Block Buster?

Re: So who's going to submit a safety animation?

I burned it as a true movie DVD. I figure they will be able to play it one way or another.

Re: So who's going to submit a safety animation?

This will be the first-ever animation submission by Team 980. Two new students just started working on it. They attended the animation sessions of the SCRRF workshops held at CSUN earlier in November and the Autodesk 3ds Max software was just downloaded last night. I think they'll do a great job and I'm excited to see what they produce.

Well kind of late to start now wouldn't you think? We have been working on this animation for the whole time and are not even done yet. Tonight we showed our first preliminary rendering to the team without voices. We recorded voices tonight as well. But I think this is the best product our team has ever produced animation wise. Well good luck to all of you.

Buddy, I have to say that looks pretty good. That is some high quality modeling there.

Whoa! slow down partner. Standard broadcasting definition is 740X480 NTSC thats what a standard Tv plays. I would render it out in that size. I personally like the quicktime animation compressor. It does a darn good job at keeping the quality of the animation.
