Animated Assistants: ANIMALS

Who doesn't love a talking animal? Dr. Dolittle loved them! Our Animal Animated Assistants are designed to be used interactively with a teacher to help explain difficult subjects and concepts to students.
Click on any of the videos below to see a small sampling of what we can do and have done in classrooms across the country. We do specialize in facial animations as our goal was to stay away from creating a cartoon. We also do quite a bit of custom work as well.

Andy Anura

Andy came to life for a special project where inner city land was restored to its habitat state in the 1600s.  Andy was so proud of this accomplishment that he agreed to take folks on a virtual tour of this many acre site with wetlands, shorelines and pools that any frog would love.  Andy has created for you total fun with action he calls FROG FRENZY.

Barney Bear is simply special.  He can be on vacation or not and ready to offer his expertise on any topic you choose.

Billy Bird Beak

Billy Bird Beak knows just how special Bird Beaks are.  He will take you to the great beak research accomplished by Charles Darwin and the finches he studied on the Galapagos Islands.  Have you ever thought about why beaks look different on different birds?  Well, Billy can help you with that.

Carter Caterpillar

Carter was the guest speaker at a workshop for community members coming together to make a difference in rainwater runoff by building rain gardens.  He was a champion of both comic relief as well as serious information during this day long training.  Who knew a caterpillar could talk.  The participants I am told look for Carter as they build their rain gardens.

Leo the Lion

Teaching assistants can easily teach about themselves, their environments and placement in the tree of life.   It is one thing to read about a lion, another one to see a great picture of one and just off the charts to have the picture talk to you in a power point presentation or movie.

Ollie Oyster

Ollie Oyster is very very angry.  Be prepared for him to tell the truth about what is happening where he lives, the Chesapeake Bay.  Can you believe Ollie needs to tell you about how the history of Oyster fishing has caused so much trouble and even about oyster wars.   He will even quiz you about all this.  

http://www.ecrcme.com/store/p48/The_Great_Python_Invasive_Debate.html  

Peter Python

Peter Python can’t wait to tell his story and SCARE YOU!  How did he wind up in the Everglades anyway?  Well, he will tell you, and he will also tell you about his growing population and how his airplane secrets are allowing him to move north, perhaps to your house.  So,  his snaky facts are all true and ready for you.  

Polar Bear

Our Polar Bear led a family program with a children’s story and a set of icy activities.  The children’s Book “The Lonely Polar Bear” delivered a different message to both the youth and the parents who attended.  Activities revealed thoughts about climate change and life in a polar climate.

Porcus Pig

Now Porcus Pig is one knowledgeable fellow. There is not a single topic that he cannot speak to.  Here is joined forces with many of his fellow teaching assistants and wanted to bring to light what happens to objects biodegrading in the ocean.  Who knew he knew all about cotton gloves falling apart in the ocean.  Check it out.

Rocky Rockfish

Rocky Rockfish has now appeared on stage  and in classrooms in four different states and even made the stage in the Discovery Theater at the Smithsonian.  His flexibility is found in his TOTAL PROMPT THEATER script that turns everyone into a suspects in this murder mystery.  Email  or zoom us to learn more about Rocky’s way to involve everyone and do it with or without rehearsals.

Sergio the Shrimp

Sergio was created special to capture the attention of 5th grade students in Louisiana during a demonstration teaching lesson on Motivation.  Characters have the great ability to become unique to wherever you live and with a script prepared extra special, they bring the content home.

Terrrpy the Turtle

Terrrpy the Turtle became a talking character to help promote environmental responsibility for an environmental nonprofit.  Adaptable for every imaginable pollution problem and solution, Terrrpy debuted at a conference for environmental educators.

Wally Whale

Wally Whale lacks confidence and honestly doesn’t know what he can bring to the oceans of the world.  He has many questions about everyone and everything as he tries to discover himself.  In a giant surprise, he discovers that he does something so special that it is a delight for everyone in the ocean or who visits the ocean.
