Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

Hey folks! :)
I come to you today with a challenge. Create a small 5-10 second flash video about a superhero or superpowers in just a week! You can really do anything with this. Just do as I explain and everything should go smoothly.

- What to do -
Create a 5-10 second flash about a superhero.
You will need the almighty power of Flash 8!
UNLESS, you can get someone to convert it for you.

- Due Date -
I am posting this on Saturday, June 13, 2009!
This is due, so you should have it sent to me by Sunday, June 21, 2009!
Just 2 days before I graduate. :D
I will submit our almighty collab to the portal either the Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday after.

- Specs -
* Stage Size: 650 x 350 PIXELS!
* Frame Rate: THIRTY (30) Frames Per Second
* Background Colour: White. Default. Make one or else!
* I am currently using FLASH 8. If you have anything higher, ask someone to CONVERT!
* Name your movie clips/graphics/anything
* Send part through email lacavera.c. Or upload it and send me a link in PM or post...

- Other Things -
I am aiming for a great collab here, so take your time. But not too much time! And you can make it "cartoony" if you want, and not so realistic-looking!
You can make up to FOUR parts. They must be good though!
I will put in as many parts as the amount of people that want to join.

Due Date will be extended if needed...and I do have a BA of over 3.5 ... look at my userpage, for some reason one of my submissions doesn't come up when you search my name.. i also haven't submitted my best work, so join please! :)

I am definitly in this, I'll take any part, I can think of a shit load of things to do.

I'd like to join this, but.. I've got CS4 :/

If you have a higher version of flash you can save it as a lower version.
If you have a lower version of flash, flash 8 can open it.

Flash CS4 is only able to save as CS4 or CS3.
Get your facts straight.

Makeshift my good man I hope you don't mind me sticking my face into another one of your collabs in order to offer my VA talents for this? Because I am going to. This sounds like an awesome idea and I'd love to be a part.

If you need a voice actor please contact me! Here are some samples of me work:

Papa Johns Commercial Parody, by ForNoReason Type: SongGenre: Voice Acting

No Homework, by ForNoReason Type: SongGenre: Voice Acting

A Voice Acting Demo?, by ForNoReason Type: SongGenre: Voice Acting

I am all over this, if you'll have me. Sounds like a lot of fun. :D

If you'd be kind enough to say; "S**T... I missed" in a sort of dopey, uninterested voice.

If you can, could I have a sensored (beep over it) and unsonsored. So I can use depending on the age of this.

Can I get a place btw?

So far I've got DumbassDude, Dugh (Pretty sure CS4 can go to CS3, and CS3 can go to Flash 8), Dimeck, doctormario, and ForNoReason for some voices.
Making progress already.. :D

oh hell yeah. ive always wanted to do a collab with somone. sweet. i can think of a whole hours worth of content.

I really want to join this collab but can you please extend the Due Date, just a week? I need to study a lot this week, so if you don't mind. :)

* Frame Rate: THIRTY (30) Frames Per Second

I think that's not necessary. 12 or 15 it's ok but 30 is too fast!! Isn't it?

i can possibly extend the due date.. most likely, actually.

and 30 is actual pretty much standard.. well 24 is i think, but 12 or 15 is waaay too slow.

been looking for a collab with hardly any parts taken, finnaly found one. ill take a part if thats ok.

All collab's I've seen have 30. It's a pain. A tip is to have each frame that you would normally have, doubled. So when animating it's; in essence, 15. This also means you can have fast bits.

Thank you. :)

Ok. I think I will get accustomed to the 30 fps.

wait... thirty? omfg, there is no way i can do that. i would be more comfertable with 12 or 15 or something around there

Guys, stop complaining.
24-30 is like the most used FPS of animation. There's a reason for that.
12-15 is way low. Get used to it.

I used 12 when I first started using flash, and now that I know you can actually change the Frame Rate, I always use 24. But I can picture this collab being fast-paced so i thought 30 was the best option.

Mark me down as maybe

I'm currently working on something, but I might be able to crank something out.

hey makeshift! i would love to join this collab!! i have a really cool idea and consider myself a pretty solid animator! let me know!

I think I can do one, even with a bad hand.

Sure you can join, can't believe I've already got a lot of people interested.

Ok, lol. Sweet. I will show like a part update on the next page.
If you have a personal part requirement, please tell me ASAP

This collab sounds great, can I join ?

I have an idea, since i can't program for crap, I say we have a backgrond track for the whole thing.

this is good for two reasons:
1)minimizes programming
2)minimizes filesize

also, we should have an ad preloader, so we make money.

I'm not too sure about this, because i think pretty much everyone will agree that they want their own sounds and music and stuff. If you need me to put it in for you, I can.

Definitely. :D

Having the same track through out helps.
I mean, if people use there own music just have them after the song has ended?
I've almost done my ani, and I havn't put music to it yet.
