Hey everyone.

So I remember witnessing the amazing collaboration that resulted in
One Love
http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view.php?id=214746

I thought the idea was brilliant and it gave artists of many different levels a chance to participate in one large project.

My aim is to recreate this feeling with a new collab, however the song being played throughout will be Stop Crying Your Heart Out - By Oasis
Most people have probably heard of it and I specifically chose this song as it is both well recognised and will fit perfectly with a collab like this.

Ok so Lets give it a shot:

Here are the rules:
Each author must select one of the lines listed below to animate to. If required an author can animate several parts.

The author must animate their whole chosen line up until just before the next line begins.

The parts must be animated by a single character on a white background lip synched with the music.

All animators must additionally animate their character lip synching to the final line
"Stop crying your heart out" For the End sequence

The flash will be 550 by 400 pixels, white background and 24 fps

Here are the lines Take your pick

1. Hold up
2. Hold on
3. Don’t be scared
4. You’ll never change what’s been and gone

5. May your smile (may your smile)
6. Shine on (shine on)
7. Don’t be scared (don’t be scared)
8. Your destiny may keep you warm

9. Cos all of the stars Are fading away
10. Just try not to worry You’ll see them some day
11.Take what you need And be on your way And stop crying your heart out

12. Get up (get up)
13. Come on (come on)
14. Why’re you scared? (I’m not scared)
15. You’ll never change What’s been and gone

16. Cos all of the stars Are fading away
17. Just try not to worry You’ll see them some day
19. Take what you need And be on your way And stop crying your heart out

20. INTERLUDE

21. Cos all of the stars Are fading away
22. Just try not to worry You’ll see them some day
23. Just Take what you need And be on your way And stop crying your heart out

24. We’re all of us stars
25. We’re fading away
26. Just try not to worry Y
27. You’ll see us some day
28. Just take what you need
29. And be on your way
20. And stop crying your heart out

ALL: Stop crying your heart out

Ok that means we need at most 20 Artists.
I will put the final thing together dont worry about that. All I need you to do is post what line you want here and Ill keep everyone updated.
Make sure you post what lines you want to do first and make sure I have confirmed it.
Make your whole scene into a movie clip, break all fonts and email it to
dj_amin@hotmail.com when your done.

We'll probably do a vote at the end for the best 5 Submissions to make co-authors.

GOOD LUCK!

Sorry lol Typo. The last listed lined is obviously 30 not 20.
Which means we need at most 30 artists!

thanks,
Amin

Sorry I dont mean to flood my own thread but one thing I forgot all entries must have their username written in the bottom left corner!
Thanks,
Amin

lol trple post

No one wanna give this a shot?

It sounds interesting, but I donno if i'm up to something as big as that.

Also not really my style.

Go for it. Just pick a line, youll only have to animate one line which will probs be around 10 seconds. Its really not too big!

i wouldn't mind going for it

yeh, sign me up

Note: im a bit of a n00b at flash so if u need someone thats a pro don't look here

Yeah dude i might give it a whirl, but you dotn seem to have many people at the moment. If interest starts to piick up send us an email

Thats cause no one looks in the flash section, and if you post in the general forum they tell you to go here, it's a catch 22 i tell ya!

I'll take 9 I guess... :p

I might try
i Have a character

Hey peeps make sure you tell me what lines your going to do and maybe give me an image of your characters

As much as i would like to be a part of something like this, Its clearly been done before with the submission you just showed, so why would we do it again?

also this whole white background thing, couldnt you make it more intresting than that?
I honnestly think you need to pick a different song.

Hey. Thanks for the suggestions.

Im going to mix it up a little in that it will be like a white cubicle for each character and the camera will pan from character to character.

Also what dont you like about the song? Got any other preferences?

hey sup djamin, id like to do 30 Stop crying your heart out!

well, I just feel that theres no reason to do the EXACT SAME THING as what those other popular artists did. Doing a colab is all well and good, but it needs some aspect of originality. Once Legendary frog has taken part in something, its no longer original. Get my drift?

A new song would make it more fresh, and encourage artists like before to join in on the colab.
Dont ask me for a song though, because i have bad taste in music.

ArtistJ it is a different song!

well, then how do we know what frame to start on for each set of lyrics, or should we try and overlap lines a little

Yer exactly try and overlap the lines a little.
ArtistJ what line do you wanna do?

Man I just love that song, sure I'll have a crack at it :3, I'm a little rusty at flash animation but that's something I can work on.

I'd like to do line 16 please if that's alright? This is the character I'd be using if I am picked http://www.deviantart.com/view/4543420/.

I look forward to your response and to work on this project, it sounds like a challenge but tons of fun at the same time.

...Heh that sounded so dumb :D...

so, ive decided i am doing line 10.
I shall do a frame by frame dramatic scene where a man, probabaly myself, puts on glasses and looks toward the heavens.

Alrite everyone here's what the lines are so far

Line 9 DJAMIN
Line 10 ARTISTJ
Line 16 MAYLEE
Line 25 DJAMIN
Line 30 ALONEINTHEDARK

Still a lot more lines to go! Anyone wanna join just post what line you want!

thanks,
Amin

i wouldnt mind doing it, just has anyone got an example just so i know exactely what to do?

download the song
Stop crying your heart out by oasis

then pick a line out of the listed ones. Then animate a character on a white background singing to it.

Heres an example http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view.php?id=214746

i wouldnt mind doing line 21, and does all the font in the bottom left corner have to be the same?

sorry 2 double post but ill do line 1

I would join in.

popnfresh do you want to do line 21 or line 1 or both?

And -snare- what line do you want to do?

thanks,
Amin

It's a novel idea, sure, but I'm gonna sit and wait to see how this project goes before joining.
