Hey guys, it's been a while. I was working on our "Safety Animation" ALL of last weekend, and finally got it done. This is for a competition held by FIRST Robotics, meant to spread safety messages to robotics teams.



Let me know what you all think. This is my first attempt at animating anything like this, hope you guys like it

And yes, I know I'm not the best voice actor. This was kind of a last minute thing xD

I considered it, and boy would that be so awesome... But I had to worry about copyright infringement. One team did a great Old Spice mimic in their animation, but it was shot down for copyright. I'd still like to figure out how to do it, though, this guy seems to have pulled it off in 3DS Max:

Thanks! Heh, I might just make a series... I'm starting to like all this animation stuff I'll need to work on getting a better rig though, there's this weird effect where the actual geometry moves much faster than the bones. That's mainly why the animation is a bit linear if you look closely.

This animation was created in Blender. SFX and music were made in FL Studio and Garageband. The video was compiled in Audacity and Windows Movie Maker.

Hope you guys also liked the credits dubstep I made xD
