I love that concept. Except..my computer only gets rebooted about once every 2 months

Thanks!

We were sort of afraid that the luddite philosophy we decided to highlight would be unpopular with people in FIRST.

Also, explodingcan, I really like the accent on your animation's narrator. My question might sound really stupid, but is that how most hawaiians talk?

Not really. our nararrator is just a regular student. Just because we are from hawaii, it doesnt mean that everyone talks in a hawaiian accent. Hawaiian is a separate language. I mean its just like when australians say, mate. I am replying in a way that rarely anyone in hawaii would reply like. If someone was hawaiian and they read that post, they will be full on racist so,
thanks for the comment.

We chose him as our narrator because we thought he had the "professional" voice. And explodingcan is right, not all of us in Hawaii has that accent. We talk English too.

I asked Autodesk, and they said sometime in the next week (they have to review them first). And that answer was Saturday - I didn't realize that other folks besides Firsters work weekends....

I have been amazed at how much Autodesk does for this competition. Any correspondence is quick and courteous. I think we are very lucky that they support this.

Thats funny. I absolutely love your Dean Kamen character. Hmmmm... I got to create my own someday. Keep using him, But still challenge yourself by re-rigging him so your animation is smoother and your can crank out more facial expressions from him.

Haha...thanks! I would've re-rigged him if time permitted...but he only got in there because I ended up having to put Tyler's animation together in video editing software for him. Unfortunately we didn't have enough complete scenes for the audio track, so we ended up adding in some extra little quick things at the last minute .

Also...who's idea was it for a giant wall of refrigerators? ABSOLUTELY INGENIOUS!!!

And...I couldn't stop laughing for about ten minutes after seeing the thingamajingy...I'm pretty sure that completely made my day...awesome, well-executed idea...I want one...but no one picked up the phone when I called .

I'm seeing some really great animations here though! The competition gets tougher and tougher every year!
