Hello my name is TigerJ15 and I'm looking for an animator for a series I'm working on called Life As Lucas. Basically its about a 10 year old Canadian kid that moves to America and with his new friends deals with Aliens Ghosts Werewolves and clones.
So if there are any animators that are interested then feel free to talk to me

I wasn't sure if the color were correct because i didn't know what color were you using! and the stroke will differ a bit because I am zooming in into 400% with brush number 2 !
and this is how my process of animation!
maybe if you provided me with the actual flash drawing maybe I can work it out that way !
here is my skill check it out:

Sure I could provide the original flash intro if need be, just so you could get a feel for the character

when will I start ! I am so exacted ! I didn't know that the character would so fun to animate!
the only weakness is in coloring and shade! I used "fairly oddparents" as a reference because the character really remind be of that cartoon! my work as you saw take stages to finish ! because I have learned it from oddball through the audition !
Okay well I talked to my co-creator and he likes your image of Lucas, though he says that a little more editing needed to be done so that it can be as close to the original as possible. So basically you have the job however there is a catch, basically he want's you to make a trailer for the series comprised entire of your own imagination and the characters now there are guidelines 1) you have to use the main characters in the series (don't worry I'll tell you who is who) 2) you have to stick wise the basis that it is a show about 10 year olds that get into ridiculous situations (e.g. werewolves, robots, clones, aliens e.c.t.) Aside from that, that it.
So here are the main characters that you have to use (left to right in the picture)
Name: Mandy Claw
Age: 10
Occupation: Student
Nationality: American
Bio: This girl not only tortures Lucas on a daily basis but also has ambitions to take over the world. She's always getting into trouble due to Lucas' stupidity, Takashi says that she tortures him because she likes him, but that's doubtful
Don't use the teenager on the left, aside from that you can use the rest of them
Name: Lucas Matthews
Age: 10
Occupation: Student
Nationality: Canadian/British
Bio: The main protagonist of the series, Lucas normally has a plan for getting the gang into trouble (not intentionally though) He moved to America because of his mothers profession and has a crush on his friend Jenny
Name: Takashi Yakamoto
Age: 11
Occupation: Student/ werewolf
Nationality: Japanese
Bio: Lucas' best friend whom he's had many adventures with. Even in times of danger he's always cool calm and collective even though he's from a very strict family. His family also has a 1000 year old curse on them causing the males in the family to turn into werewolves
Name: Jennifer Mitchell
Age: 10
Occupation: Student
Nationality: American
Bio: The love interest of Lucas and George even if she doesn't realize it. Compared to the rest of the group she's just an average kid although she has a secret that she's unaware of
Name: Richard Adio
Age: 9
Occupation: Student
Nationality: American/ Kenyan
Bio: Richard was an average 9 year old who rather than stand out would just be invisible to everyone else, he was quite used to this and then he was abducted and experimented on by aliens. The result was that he would literally be invisible, however he kept fading in and out of this state, luckily Lucas and the gang managed to help him get this under control.
Name: George Kirkland
Age: 10 (technically 68)
Occupation: Student
Nationality: British
Bio: This boy genius hales from the year 1955, he was abducted by aliens and was cryogenically frozen for 58 years until he woke up due to the aliens leaving him behind. Now that he's gotten used to living in the modern age he's got an advanced understanding of modern technology, he normally has a way to get the gang out of trouble and is Lucas' rival for Jenny's affection
just a heads up George is the guy in the space ship
So that's it if you've got any questions then feel free to ask
Cheerio for now
Tiger
Here is some questions
Q1:so does that mean no color codes for me ?! I can't get the colors right! plus when I just use the eyedropper tool I get different colors!
Q2:so I don't use that teenager with the evil girl?!
Q3:I am just not good at background what should I do about it when I create the trailer!
plus I really don't know how long is the trailer!?
Is it ok if stick with the old one for this trailer ?! because I tried to change the eyes of the character and turned out as a crazy boy!
can I start up by showing you how the look of the trailer in a storyboard?
I made this small thing without that sketch ! This is how I feel right now!
also I think I didn't made any effort into it! because I am bored! I plan to add it as the beginning of the trailer though!

if you're having trouble with the colour then you can use this free tool called a
colour detector which you can get here: http://download.cnet.com/Color-Detector/3000-2192_4-10396800.html
yes don't use the teen with the evil grin
and as for the backgrounds it's up to you what you do, I just want to see what you're capable of when left to your own devices, just do your best
Oh and if you're having problems with the characters and what not the feel free to check out this video to get a feel for the characters/ style:

Nice now that pretty helpful indeed! I will try my best but don't expect perfect work because I will try to develop the trailer quickly like I have did with the first character I provided! or maybe at least each cut of the animation!
It didn't like his personality as a peaceful child , so I changed it into cheerful is that ok or should I stick with the one in that video?
I thought maybe I need these angle so tell me if it require any changes
Go with whatever you think works best, try not to worry about it

Hey, I don't know if i'm talented enough for this job. And to be perfectly honest i'm a little busy with my own projects.
However. I can set you up with a super talented animator who'd be perfect for this job. His name is Emrox.
Here's a LINK to his profile.
Hit him up, this is exactly the kind of stuff he's interested in at the moment.

(jk I already know I did :P)

Hey broman I know this scoundrel Brewster thinks HE's got what it takes to take on sucha Large-And-In-Charge project of your's but this guy's got it all wrong. I"M the one who is Offically Signing On To This ProJect, not HIM oh no no. I've been working with the ol' GoAnimate for as long as I can remember (about 4 or 5 years). I know ALL the tricks to the train adn I can ASSUre you that this project will be front page #1 material in no time flat! I swear it. (jk I already know I did :P)
I really wish I could help out, but I'm already late for my tetherball lesson!! It's a really difficult sport, despite looking totally easy. If you have any free time, give it a go! I mean it'll take you a few years to really get the backhand down, but it can still be fun just going forehand! I suggest using a 2-3lb ball at first, it'll raise your strength for those power serves. For the rope, any six-footer should do just fine. Make sure to adjust for your own height, though! If you need a coach, you can generally find one on Craigslist for only 100-200 per hour in the "casual encounters" section (I guess they don't want you wearing a suit to tetherball practice lol).
So anyways, let me link you to the goanimate champ three years running, he loves teaming up on great projects like this one! You won't even have to pay! This whole animation business is far too intricate for me anyways.
