Continued from Block 14...

1. Question #11 states this should not be a 3D animation, but seems that there is 3D animated assets in the sample video provided in Question #14. Is the intent to have the contractor develop this using #pure# motion graphics only?

A. Since I am not an animator, I may not understand what you mean by 3D. To me 3D means I#ve put on some type of eye-ware or goggles to view something in this manner. I went back to our original contract and the last vendor called what you saw in the example provided in the answer to question #14, 2 ½D. We want our new animation to look more realistic and lifelike.

2. Would NOAA be open to CGI if the quality is realistic?

A. Yes

3. Will the period of performance change from previous anticipated of 20 April?

A. Date for submission is extended until 4:00 P.M. on April 18, 2014, from noon on April 16, 2014 as shown on Amendment No. 1.

4. You noted that we can post samples of work to support the bidding process to oceankiosk@noaa.gov.

Does this email address have a file size limit as animations may be too large and bounce back ?

A. Yes. Please provide a link in any emails to download examples, such as through dropbox or similar type of file transfer service.

5. Would it be possible to end a zipped file or a simple download link from our server?

A. Yes

Descript: Amendment No. 2 is hereby issued to provide answers to questions from offerors.

The date for submission of offers is hereby extended until April 18, 2014 at 4:00 P.M.
