Title: cool robot music vid
Post by: BANE on December 24, 2010, 05:31:51 PM

I cant tell whether this is animation or real.  However, it seems to have some hobby servos so maybe.  Any takers???

Looks like a real, non CGI robot but I don't think the movements are in real time.

the black cloth belt says its real to me , its stop motion animation prolly combined with a bluescreen type effect hence the perfect black background hinting at cgi

It's real. You'll notice each of the servo wires are numbered - when you have that many servos, it's hard to keep them all straight when programming. My robot fish has 20 servos and if it wasn't for the labeling I'd go mad lol.

A cgi artist would never know that, or even care. :P
