Unless I get some more movies, what I have now just isn't going to cut it

Well, this is disappointing. The new deadline has gone and passed and I have not recieved a single new submission. Unfortunately 3 of them is not nearly enough to be sufficient so unless I get a sudden flurry of late ones I guess this colab is officially dead.

I have recieved that one yes.

It is one of only 3 I have so far. The deadline is only 3 days away I hope I'll be getting more than just that soon.

no, it's not you've still got a week.

Nooo, it's just been extended. Hopefully people are taking this time to improve their peices.

Alright, well...since I only got 3 submissions I guess I don't have much choice but to extend it a month. However this will put us in competition with the Power of Three stuff and that might over shadow us. But those who need some more time you have a month, those who want to join, you have a month and those who submitted already you can do some more work on your part to perhaps make it better.

NEW DEADLINE: AUGUST 8th

Ok, deadline's tomorrow and I've only got 2 submission so far

Umm, no. Since in the rules it says you need to use the lines in the list and that is not one of them.

At least two people are having email problems, and one person wants to join but he just found the thread. It would be a GREAT help to a lot of people, and I bet a million bucks the collab would come out looking a lot better if we did this.

Alright, you have until July 8th. But those of you who do not need an extension please send it to me on the first. Remember, the sooner I get the submissions the sooner it'll be out.

If you must, just add my e-mail and tell me what your MSN name is so I don't ignore it because I don't know who you are

I'm sorry, that's totally supposed to be 6 days!! not 6 weeks

Six weeks left to submit!

And don't be too worried about extensions there will be some leeway time for me to put it together and make the menu etc etc. and I need to know who I'm putting in it before I can continue.

As long as not everyone takes advantage of the extension some of you may have some more time.

Oh and keep in mind if you do submit on the deadline there's probably a better chance of you getting in since I'll be making the menu as soon as I get a bunch on that day.

If you absolutely have to please use Action Script 3

it'll look better when it's smaller, and i need advice, I can't seem to put my finger on it but something is fucked up with the walking animation.

You may already be doing this but just make sure someone dies immediately after the line is said. And the walking sequence is weird I think because his legs are moving too fast for how fast he's moving foreward

It is indeed, but you have until July 1st. Why rush it, take your time and make it really good. If you can do a satisfactory flash in less than a week imagine what you could add to the quality with much more time.

You can do as many quotes as you want. Although it can only be one quote per movie. Like, you can't have two quotes in the same movie.

At 6/1/09 04:12 PM, JonBro wrote: Man, it looks like someone got that one.

That doesn't matter, as I've said before, don't worry if someone has taken one already. I'm glad that you're still joining but I want to make this very clear:

You can pick a line that someone else has already picked

I don't mind if I get multiple movies with the same line. It may happen that there will be multiple versions of the same line within the colab.

Plus, I'm hoping the competition will help people try even harder to make a quality movie.

The only thing I don't want is if you see like 5 people having chosen a line, it would probably increase your chances if you choose one that has not been picked (which may be why you changed the line you chose in which case great :) )

But just for people who may think that once all the lines are chosen they can't join: that is notthe case

Isn't there a chance you'll end up with loads of people all doing the same couple of lines? :/

This is definately a possibility, but I'm willing to take that risk because if someone really good comes in and wants to do a specific line but they see it's already taken then I lose that person.

If all else fails then I'll get a bunch of submissions doing the same lines which may not be a bad thing. We'll just have to see.

but iv got Flash CS4?will that be a problem?

It might, I know the conversion from 9 to 8 doesn't work but that may only be when using actionscript in the movie. And it may not be a problem from CS4 to CS3

If I'm not mistaken I believe there is a way to export your work in a lower version of flash. If this exists and you do this just make sure that the movie still works and tell me to do this when you submit.

Lol yes, I did mean that.

And you don't have to tell me what it is you're doing. Anyone can do any of them. I would like to know whether or not people are doing one so I know this colab isn't dying. But not neccessarily what you're doing.

Hmm, I guess I should have said before:

I won't be adding to that list, what's there is what is to be used. No suggestions please

Hello newgrounds

I have decided to create the "Famous Last Words" colab. In this colab will be a bunch of clips based around a list of famous last words found below.

Here's the scoop, you will choose one of the famous last words lines found in the list below and create a short, funny movie based around the line.

I would prefer to make the colab have one movie per famous last words line but we'll see how it goes.

Anyone can submit but keep in mind, not everyone will be chosen. I will be using the best of what I get so make it good.

Also, you can make as many as you want but obviously the quality will be better if you focus on one.

Here are some rules:

-It must be funny/amusing etc.
-They should be approximately 30 seconds long (give or take about 10 seconds)
-They MUST include the EXACT line that you've chosen from the famous last words list
-A character MUST die immediately after the line has been said
-No sprites, stick figure movies etc. Basically, the best quality movies will be more likely to get in so put some effort into the art.

Techno Details:

(you may notice some similarities to the sf colab guidelines, that's cuz they were really good suggestions so why wouldn't I follow their lead)
-500x400 stage and 24 FPS
-Use Flash 9 and if there is any actionscript (which I recommend you not use) make sure it's ActionScript 3.0
-put your movie inside a single movie clip on the main timeline.
-make your symbol names "username_symbol" so that there are no conflictions with other symbols that might be named the same

Submitting:

-name the file "username_movietitle.fla"
-send the whole .fla file to tyger_man_006(at)hotmail(dot)com
Don't send me questions with this e-mail, they will be ignored. Please post Any questions them in this thread I will try to answer as many as I can.
Deadline for submissions will be July 1st so you have almost exactly a month to do these. This deadline may change under certain circumstances but this is very unlikely. Do not expect this!

And of course, have fun!
