Our lead animator got his start animating through that competi- tion which had a side competition for digital animation. When the previous sponsor decided to dis- continue support for the anima- tion competition we jumped at the chance to pick it up and promote it because we have seen firsthand the impact it has on young minds. And it has come full circle! That AutomationDirect employee is now the lead animator for the FIRST Robotics annual game animation which presents the competition to the world. You can see this year’s animation here: Destination Deep Space Game Animation.
The FIRST Robotics Competition is currently active (March/April 2019) and will cul- minate with a championship in Houston and another in Detroit in mid-April. You can find local teams to support events to attend in your area here.
It was a pleasure for us to promote the Digital Animation Award again this year. You can see all of the results along with judges’ comments here
