After watching this, I was inspired and disgusted at the same time (but in a good way). I thought, why don't I make a collab where everybody makes their own 5 second films? So here is what I pooped out:

!!!!Read all of this or else your part might not be excepted :O!!!!

What You Do (in convenient steps):
1) Sign up here by posting, saying that you would like to sign up.
2) Pop open Flash and set all the specs and parameters
3) Start making you 5 second film
4) Have it done by June 15th

Other Instructions (more specific):
1) Your entire movie will be 8 seconds long
2) The first 2 seconds will be a black screen with the name of your movie and the author (you)
3) The 5 seconds in the middle will be devoted to your animation
4) The last second will be a black screen saying "The End"
5) The whole thing will be exactly 192 frames

Specs:
650x350 (wwwwwwiiiiiiiiddddddeeeeeee sssssssccccccrrrrrrreeeeeeeeennnnnnnnn)
24 FPS (frames per second)
White Background (just put a black block at the beginning and end)
!!!!!!!!All the text you use must be the "Baskerville" font at 68 points!!!!!!
Please save the file as a Flash 8 file.
The whole thing will be exactly 192 frames

Rules:
No Nudity
Violence is allowed (but don't go out of you way to make it violent)
No sticks
No sprites
The only Crew you can have is the Clock Crew but they all must have monocles, top hats, and mustaches.

Links:
Here is the website
Here is an example of what I want
If there are any other questions, just PM me.

Also, one last note, I'll be making the preloader, the menu and a part just to let you know. ;)

If you post and I don't directly reply to you, it's because I'm away for the computer, but that still means you can join. Heck, anyone can join for that matter. Just don't be discouraged if I don't respond, that's all.

I`ll join. I`m doing a few parts for a couple other collabs and I even have my own collab right now, but 5 seconds isn`t very long and I kind of have an idea.

look: I changed my sig again.

I'll join, but are there any themes besides the fact that it's 5 seconds

I've been messing about with Flash since 2004 but never actually submitted anything.

Joining a collab is a good idea.

Can we do multiple parts?
And also, will we get coauthored just for having one of the best parts?

Yes, you can do as many parts as you want, but the maximum will be 4. Also, co-authorship will be based on the quality of your parts.

I think it would be cool to have some elevator music at the beginning where it shows title+author. :)

I'll join. Why 2 second title cards? That will get annoying after about 10 slides. Why not just put your username in a corner like every other collab and use a quick transition?

No, that's not necessary. The only things I forgot the mention was that you need to name your movieclips like yourusername_movieclip and you need to keep it all in one scene.

If you look at the films on the website you'll understand that I'm trying to make it as much like the originals as possible, but different random shorts.

Put me down for a part.

Should have it done a couple days.

Do the title screens have to be a specific font?
