Polyhedral Waltz Animation (with music)
-
Below is a sketchup animation of how Platonic Solids (regular polyhedra) in the same sphere fit together. It includes original music by one of my colleagues. If you turn on the closed captions in youtube you can see the name(s) of what you're looking at (black with white outline looks better than the default).
Appreciate the help I got from this site while I was making this. I'm very pleased with the result.
(Note: This is a terrible thumbnail, and youtube is not updating to the slightly better one I chose....)

Good job ! I enjoy the beauty of geometry & symmetry.

Thanks! Me too....

You managed to solve the export video issue with resolution...glad to see that it worked! Keep the good work & creative style of teaching!

Thanks, Rafael. I didn't really change all that much -- talked to some video folks that I work with, and they though it looked great for youtube, so mostly I just stopped worrying. I did change the background color and exported to 1280 x 720 pngs, which helped some. It's the blue that looks the worst, and there was a lot of that in the sample I posted earlier (doesn't contrast w/the edges enough). It still looks a lot better on my computer or on drop box, but oh well.
I do appreciate your help -- definitely got me to try different things, and to get unstuck.
ps -- thumbnail seems to have updated.... hope someday I get to pick, as there are still much better choices.
