Looking for ideas and suggestions. Want to create a series of animations that mimic scuba training skills. Have, and can create, role model videos. Curious to see if using, playing with, such animations improve learning of these motor skills in rl. Know very little, as yet, of how involved this would be...

I'd say get familiar with making animations and using AOs and gestures. You might also want to search for scuba related items in-world or thru onrez or slexchange just to give you an idea of what might already be out there. There are also people available for hire as well but you will have to look for them on the Products Wanted part of the forum. If you try learning this yourself take a look at the faqs and the other threads here. Anyone is free to ask questions here about making animations.

I have worked as a diving professional (PADI Divester and CMAS Instructor) and i have experience making animations. I am now more or less thight making my own animation product line but your idea of scuba animations seems interesting.

Are you planning water skills as they are in PADI Open Water Diver course or some other training program (though ofcourse skills are demonstrated about same way regardless of training agency)
