2012 Animations – Post your links!

I’m excited to see the animations submitted for the 2012 season, but I’m not sure where to start looking! Thus, I thought that it would be good to have a thread listing the animations submitted for the 2012 season.

To start off, here is my team 1884’s animation:

I look forward to seeing your animation!

Here is ours

Looks Very Good!

Team 1987

Very nice!

Here’s ours, based off a ridiculous idea we got early on in the brainstorming. I found it entertaining, so I went with it!

I kind of ran right up to the time limit and had to cut the first sections short…
I should also mention freeplaymusic.com, who I forgot to put in the credits as the source of the music.

The animations thus far have been great! You can tell that many teams put the extra time provided this year to good use :smiley:

My team’s animation can be seen here: Link!… But we kind of ended up backing ourselves into a wall and not having enough time to polish everything to our standards. We will probably be making a ‘directors cut’ soon.

Also, I’ve been combing through YouTube for the past few days and looking for the animations to compile into a playlist. I think that I have most of the animations currently uploaded on said playlist, but if I’m missing one please tell me! The playlist is located here.

Also, good job(s) 1884 and 1986! They both look really good :slight_smile:

Here’s CORE 2062’s.

Not as good as I wanted it to be but I don’t know after effects well enough to do what I wanted with it.

Love all of the animations im seeing! Heres team 1987’s

Team 1912 Combustion’s animation - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKFwIuDKkQE

It’s really fun to see the different storylines everyone came up with!

Great work so far everyone! We used the software on a couple of projects last year and this fall and did fine but felt that we needed a better grounding in animation fundamentals so we went “old school” this year. We got some animation texts and combined good ol’ pencil and paper with 3DS Max. The only thing we didn’t have time to get to was “coloring” our 200 - 300 pages of paper animation :eek: .

Great job everyone!

FRC Team 1625, Winnovation Link:

Here is Team 111’s animation. I must admit that the extra time was very much appreciated. The students have a better handle on the software then they did last year and we spent an extra week on brainstorming/ storyboarding.

Also, all of the entries look great this year!

Nice work everyone!
Here is Team 847 PHRED

I commend you on your “old school” approach! Very well done! I had that animator’s workbook until I loaned it out. I see shades of Steamboat Willie

This is my first year being an animation lead on an FRC team, so this was a huge learning experience. Figuring out how to teach people and direct and all that good community-learning stuff was exhausting, but educational as well. It was a pretty hectic adventure seeing as we didn’t really have a mentor per-se, but here’s the final product!

I hope to make something even better next year! Good job everybody else, they look Amazing.

Pretty awesome submissions so far :slight_smile:

Here’s team 399’s animation!

It’s our first year for animation, so we’re pretty happy with our final outcome! Everyone on here seems to have done very well :slight_smile:

The quality of these animations really does improve every year!

Team 694’s turn: http://youtu.be/BVHFmtYAugQ

Team 254’s Submission

Team 192’s submission for 2012! I don’t think we’re on the playlist because our video was unlisted for a while.
