hey you and you too,
want to jam? well i got one for you. the sarcastic animation jam, happening as of now. animators, you have from now until 11:59:59 est on sunday to make a kickass animation using at least two out of these three elements:
- prop: a fish bowl
- location: a place with a broken window
- line of dialogue: “she’s not my _____”
these are simply meant to make sure the piece was made in the timeframe and do not need to be the focus of the piece.
technical rules:
- deadline is 11:59:59 est
- films must contain at least 2 out of 3 required elements
- one animator per team. you can bring on voice actors, musicians, background artists, writers, interns, and whatever else you might need, though
- no minimum length, but judges probs aren’t gonna pick a two second short to win
- no maximum lengths, but i can’t guarantee that the judges are going to sit through a 30 minute animation
- general newgrounds standard for content. if it doesn’t get blammed and tom doesn’t pull it from the site, you’re in
- gotta be submitted to newgrounds, either portal or dumping grounds
- post your final animation here so i can find it and send it over to the judges
- tag your work with sarcasticjam2015
judges:
- @emrox (nata 2012)
- @hikarian (nata 2013)
- @stejkrobot (nata 2014)
- @thesilleguy (nata 2015)
prizes:
- 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place as chosen by the judges will all receive a pair of hikarian’s awesome drawing gloves as well as newgrounds supporter status!
- audience choice: the highest scoring piece will receive 50 bucks (only applicable to pieces submitted to the portal before the deadline)
