bump...

Alright, I took a look at the program and it looks rather confusing. I'm sure after quite a bit of training it could be a good program, but at a first glance it is really confusing. They have many neat features such as a 3d camera plane, auto lip sync, and the design of the program is more for animation of the character, that way it is easier to tell a story, other than focusing on the animation itself... I'll have to check it out some more and try to figure the damn thing out.

I just found out about an animation studio used by many companies today. Apparently its really good, and it is cheaper than flash. The Program is called Toon Boom Studio i'm going to download the free trial and check it out. I did a bit of research and apparently it is the same program that the Family Guy animator use, along with many other companies.

So, I figured I would check it out. Apparently it has some 3d camera effect abilities, and a lot of other cool effects. It can publish into a .swf file easily, aswell as movie files. So I'm going to check it out, and let you all know what I think about it. Maybe you guys can check it out too?

I'm happy today guys! Can you guess why?

Sweet!1 I'm looking foward to this next month! What did yah think of my flash Tom?

Go with the realistic approach, stick figures shouldn't be made for a full realistic flash.

all four of them sound like good friends, but if you don't choose one soon, they will all stay that way.

Well, A is a slut, B and C are taken, so I guess that kinda narrows it down, now doesn't it?

Hey Guys I finally started making some flash again, here is my newest one... Tell me what you all think

okay thanks a lot guys, I think i'll be moving up to PhPBB3 here soo that might fix things..

I'm trying to redesign a site, and my script isn't showing up on the site.

I feel it has something to do with clearing the Cache, or "Refreshing the Style"

both of which I don't know how to do... any help?

"It has to be broadcast quality, because these will be going up on a big screen at a venue in the city.

It should be around 3 minutes, and animators are encouraged to use whatever audio they want from the show...however we will be posting some clips online for people to use if they want."

By broadcast quality, I'm assuming TV resolution, 4:3 format, and minimal compression. They want to put this on a big screen, so the output of the animation needs to be of high quality.

What was the screen size for TV output? and 24 fps im sure...

so i'm assuming they want us to animate some part of their show, and send it to them as a .wmv correct?

Man V! you are on a role again, you and your all knowing self...

anyways I finished another flash feel free to fifen! :P

Requesting Reviews

For what it is, it's pretty good. I would recommend at the very least varying up the background colors a bit more (using stronger contrasting colors). It seemed like it was mostly white / light red / pink / etc which didn't keep my interest as much as if you had a different color (perhaps) for each of the different life cycles.

Also, I would draw a more detailed coffin / death character and not fill them in with color (those were some of the few things that were colored in and they didn't seem to fit with the rest). And one last thing, when the (yellow) daughter got married, I could barely make her out due to the white background.

Thanks jiggity, I submitted it already, but I realized some of that stuff already, wasn't really a concern for me, because the focus was on the main character, not the others... and the coffin was symbolic that is why it was filled in...

All in all, not bad (and if you have a particular plan for it apart from what I said, then by all means go in that direction).

I will be in part 30 ???

That would make sense, now hurry up and complete it!

gah' I need to be a dictator...

Why are all of these parts taking so long to get completed? I'm sorry but these should have all been done, and should have been submitted like a week ago... whats the hold up people?!

Life

My main concern is the art style, should I add more detail or does it make sense?

To make my question more clear, how are tv shows such as: "Fairly odd parents" , "Dexter's Lab" made? Do they have nothing to do with Flash?

I know that some of those cartoons are made with flash, but I'm sure that some of those networks have their own programs... i think

How is this collab comming together? Care if I see some parts?

If there is any room I might make something for yah guys, I need to flash something...

so what is left that needs to be done?
