Thread: Animatronics Tutorial

Tweet

Hi all,

I've just downloaded the first DVD and support material on a new Animatronics tutorial being sold. Found this on Haunt Forum.

Halloween2go Animatronic

$20 for the DVD or $15 in download form. The videos are OK but the accompanying material is well worth the money.

Worth a look.

Apologies - posted in the wrong section. Thanks to Frankies Girl for moving it to correct section.

What is the accompanying material?

I have the DVD, the material is diagrams and such for the builds

I found this reference over the weekend, bought it as a download for $15. The video and documentation go together, walking you through the creation of an electronic animatronic.

Overall, the whole package was a good purchase. Wrote a review on my blog too.

Will be picking up volume 2 soon.

I bought both volumes. The 3 axis armature was very clever. Overall very nice.

EB, what are your thoughts on volume 2? Better than 1?

More, less, same amount of information?

Well... There's just as much information, but it's not as applicable to what I want to do. So, sorta. I think it's worth it.

I bought volumes 1 and 2 about a year and a half ago. I thought they were an excellent source of information. Dave (the author) was very helpful and responsive to e-mails as well. I can highly recommend them to anyone interested in stepping up his Halloween display. I was even able to use the info on 555 timers to build a project for a friend.
