i think that we ought to be pretty lenient for this contest, but have one major requirement: You must use a frame by frame animation technique. Whether you make a large animated gif, or a comlpex flash animation, it needs to be frame by frame animation.

Flash would be perfect for adding extras to your shots like speech bubbles, or special effects… I also think that photoshopping your frames should be allowed and encouraged, but you must alter each frame individually, as oppossed to cutting out an object, and then animating it accross a background with Flash motion tweens, which would make it a traditional animation. Pheww…

what do you guys and girls think?

Yea, to verify, we should also submit the fla or psd or what ever source file in the end to verify the frame by frame details.

im gonna stick with good 'ol playdoh. Another thing asbout this battle, i dont think there should be a filesize limit, maybe a time limit instead. I think all the animations are going to be pretty memory heavy so a time limit seems the more sensible option. What you guys think?

dont know about a timelimit… depends on what scenes people choose. perhaps have a timelimit as opposed to a filesize? or perhaps the other way round? I don’t know, but I do think, however, that Flash should be essential… they HAVE to have preloaders! (I’d rather not have to watch a jerky gif animation play through once before having to watch it again)

imho 😉

i think it would be great, to allow people to add special effects or whatnot… I mean, whats a lightsaber battle without the red or green glow?
