Description
This is what I have been working on at collage at the moment.We had to create a chain reaction involving every day objects for the project, and i have to say it was quite good fun animating it.
There are a coupple of dodgy sounds in it but on the whole it went pretty well
It was made in Maya 8.5 and rendered in mental ray.
Any feedback is much appreciated and if there's anything you think could be improved feel free to say

Ah, I remember when we made something like this in real life...
Rube goldberg machines are the best!

Nice! (O.o)
Do you believe that program Maya is better than program Flash?
I'd like do a flash with my draws but I don't know how do it

High school is sorta crappy compared to what you're doing. In Engineering, they're making us create a complex machine with at least four different simple machine. -Le sigh- If only a ping pong ball were as heavy as the ball in your animation.
Uhh...this is awesome!

Amazing animation skills. The music fits perfectly. A job well done. I love how there was never a dull moment. It was just a constant, entertaining animation.

This is one of those things i could watch over and over again. a bit short but its still good!

I think that part @ second 06 could be ok if the ball was heavy like the pool balls.. but @ sec 24 it doesnt looks realistic at all, except if the ball was magnetized to the wall, hehe. Still nice work!

I really like how the physics were, but the pace of the marble seemed to be fast, in my opinion. Though great job.

that's pretty nice ^^
was it hard to do? at college i do 3d stuff in openGL and it's pretty difficult coding stuff and getting things to work the way i want <.<

Yay, rube goldburg machines. Apart from a few little bits other people have already pointed out, it looks great.
Now where did I leave my dominoes?

this is just beautiful! I love watching this! Even though it's just a simple animation~

Some of the physics seems unlikely (Like the one near the finish with the long jump), and the sound could have been improved a little (A rolling sound maybe).
But all that aside. I thought it was great. Nice static animations and models, and creative. I personally couldn't do much better.
Well done (:

there is a ball rolling sound in there 
yer, the ball jump is a little emphasised but i did that purpousfully to make the animation a little cartoony
anyway, thanks very much for the feedback

Rube Goldberg devices, I think they're called. But yeah, they're awesome.

Very nice animation. Simple, yet realistic, accept when the ball stopped suddenly when it hit the first pendulum. Still, its a very good work.

Actually i think that part could be ok if the ball was heavy like the pool balls.. otherwise @ second 24 it doesnt looks realistic at all.. well, except if the ball was magnetized to the wall, hehe. Still nice work!
