Safety animation begins on Oct 9. Due Dec 9th.

There will be an e-mail blast telling you where to register and submit the entry.

Info will probably be posted at the FirstBase website: http://firstbasefrc.autodesk.com/?nd=home

And please for all things sacred.

Use the safety animation as practice for the competition.

This is a very good time to make characters, models, and other stuff that you may want to use for the animation competition.

Here are a few other tips.

  1. Talk to mentors (or experienced students) who are responsible for your team’s workshop safety .

  2. Try to come up with a practical idea. Explosions and ninjas might be fun to animate but they don’t seem to win the safety animation award.

  3. Don’t worry about minor details. In 2005 & 2006 we were in a panic to make the deadline so we left out any background scenery - and we won!

  4. Think about the slogan. One year it was “Care enough to act”. We determined that means you should do something to change unsafe conditions or behavior.
