Halloween
Animatronics
Let's
Take a look at Animatronic Face Design
selected information from Halloween Animatronics
Volume 1 Animatronic Face.
 |
Section
Seven: the animatronic Face . Ok, an animatronic neck looks
like a stump unless it has a head attached. Hmm, maybe an animatronic
stump would be cool… 3 Degrees of freedom .. Headless …Hmmm…
Anyway, In this section you will see how to build the moving
jaw, eyes that look left and right and eyelids that blink. Once
you understand how to manipulate these areas, The sky is the
limit. Think about moving eyebrows, ears, whatever floats your
boat. Then Attach the Face to the neck and you have a very good
start to |
| Since
the eye mechanism is the most complicated part of the face,
we cover that first. From selecting your materials to building
the eye mechanism, we've got you covered. These mechanims are
AWESOME and your animatronics will take a giant leap forward
once your props are looking around and blinking! |
 |
 |
This
section is highly detailed and you will come away with the most
efficient way to build it. Now these eyes are going to have
2 degrees of freedom, LEFT to RIGHT movement as well as BLINKING. |
| Yep
there's a lot of pieces to make, but you will not be disappointed
and you will be able to build your own eye mechanics for your
Halloween animatronics. We show you how to do everything, nothing
held back! |
 |
 |
If
you're interested in making your own parts out of styrene plastic.
We've got you covered by showing you how to do it, what to build
and how simple it can be. IN FACT I use the parts we make right
then and there so YES ! You see it all! These babys are hot
off the presses (er.. vacuum forming table) and ready to become
EYELIDS for one of the animatronic faces. |
Here
I'm testing the eyes LEFT TO RIGHT as well as the eyelid motion.
Once the testing is done, and center postion is found
(you want your prop to look straight ahead don't you?) Well
maybe you don't. That would be interesting. Anyway, once thats
done we'll finish the eyes and move on. |
 |
 |
Once
the mechansims are in place and working good. I show the servo
positioning for all the motions we're going to create. Once
again, the procedure is easy to modify for your own ideas. |
| All
of my animatronic designs use the same basic (read that - TIME
TESTED) mechanics. And you will learn all of them from Halloween
Animatronics VOLUME 1. |
