3D animation - anyone?

I need someone that can create a 3D animation from a storyboard. The end video only needs to go for about 2 minutes and will only contain a bathroom and a ceiling cavity.

It is to show how the basic functionality of my product works.

1. Person enters shower
2. Sensor detects person
3. Sensor sends message to steel box in ceiling cavity
4. Steel box opens valve and water flows
5. Steel box sends message to plastic box in bathroom
6. Plastic box Turns an LED on
7. Plastic box displays 5:00 on LCD
8. Plastic box sends message to metal box
9. Metal box turns off valve

I can provide storyboard images once I have a confirmed job. I am happy to discuss a price for the work.


Kind regards,

Anthony

    I dont have the time anymore as college eats it alive .

    But I use a program called Bryce from DAZ3d its NO Myia But for $99 its does VERY well at doing Product simulations .

    If you wanted to do it your self you could . Bryce is Quite simple to use .

    Here is a Old video I did on LASER emissions with bryce

    I'm really bad with 3D design in general and I am after a professional looking animation.
    Love the Laser emissions video though, looks great. Reminds me of all the vids I watch in chemistry at school.


    Thank you smile.gif

    Blender is probably what you're looking for, and it's free.

    I'd also recommend Blender

    Blender might be a good choice. I've used Bryce for all kinds of things and like it, but it is best for things like scenery, landscapes and such.

    Thank you all for your recommendations with software however I am after someone to do work for me, not a software package.
    Sorry if my first message wasn't clear.

    Actually, Google has a pretty good tool for a novice as well. It's called Google SketchUp. I was able to create some nice animations by importing some basic objects and placing them in a 3D environment. I could then move the objects based on a timeline and animate them. It was pretty slick.
