ULC Robotics and Facebook Connectivity Bombyx

Raconteur supported the Bombyx project throughout 1.5 years of development by animating different versions of the robot, running dimensional analysis and creating renders for the press release. The animated videos helped the Facebook Connectivity team pitch the system to utility companies. The system is complex and difficult to understand, especially for customers with little engineering expertise. The videos facilitated the conversations by demonstrating the system in a realistic manner and removed doubt by allowing the presenter to pause the video during specific operations and answer questions. (Note: the accompanying video is a selection of clips. The full video is over 10 minutes of demos) Using a model provided by the client, I textured, rigged, and animated these scenes along with various others movements that were necessary to show.
