The animation reminds me a little of my all-time favorite animation from 2004 by the Thunderchickens where a chicken got so frustrated trying to cross the road it invented a gigantic robot chicken to get across.

This is not against you and I don't personally mean it to you, but I one of my pet peeves is the use of the biped. It its a horrible rig to use. As many of you probably know that by now the way I preach my anti-biped views on chiefdelphi. Nice concept, Also I think the bridge could be made a little more convenient on climbing. Those steps might be trouble for the elderly

team 357

Awesome, the only thing I have to critique is a little too much camera movement. Again another of my pet peeves. But you guys didn't go overboard. Nice concept, like the models. I would work l style, lighting, and materials for next year. I think that would be cool if you made the entire thing Dr. suess like.

team 2415

I love how it is a local problem that you are presenting. It makes it more personal. Few pointers, the water in the ocean could use less bump map. And the sand a little less grainy. Also Increase the size of your shadow maps so you get nice hard shadows like you would when your on the beach. Other than that very nice.

LoL I know you have a thing against bipeds. I wasn't going to use it either but was kind of a last resort thing. I had made a bone structure worked pretty well but except the envelopes were all screwed up and spent 8 hours trying to figure out how to fix them. In the end I was short on time and decided to just use character studio to save some time. The thing in the garbage at then end is my character I was going to use. Thanks

Thanks! We're a rookie team, so I wasn't really sure how ours compared to others. However, the issue discussed in the animation actually isn't local. Our school is in Atlanta, GA, but our animators were very adamant about the issue so they designed the concept for the animation around it.

Here's team 1902's first ever animation:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8TyB1HMAI4

We spent a good deal of time doing tutorials and getting over the 'ohhh look at the moving 3d objects phase' but we managed to come up with this in the end. In the chaos of the last couple days we never got a narration (which we were kinda almost planning on doing) so sorry if its a bit confusing. We'll be more on task next year!

I've actually used max once before on my old team before I moved, but this is the first for the rest of us (and i learned so much during the year i almost feel like this is my first year truly using max). The rest of the team is still really good! Thanks for the compliment.

By the way, your credits are incredible, they made my day.
