Comments, suggestions, etc are welcome as always.

Actually I found it quite boring. Animation was mediocar as well, the stick not having arms that is. I dont know if thats your style but I wasnt to fond of it.

I've been gone a couple days, and now that I got back I realized, this is over like tomorrow.
So I really need to finish off my part and send it in...

I'll try my damndest to finish it up, and ship it to you.

Maybe even ship it to you in a cardboard box O_o

GAH!

well if you can finish another part for tomorrow, then sure! go for it!

its also not OUT tomorrow, tomorrow's just the deadline for when I need parts. I believe the final thing will be SUBMITTED on friday. is that cool with everyone?

nick I'd love those textures now, if you've got them :D

kyle. that part is a lot like the first part dont you think? it almost only uses the same movieclips, and I'd kinda like to keep humour out of the whole collab other than marcy's shoop da whoop at the end, so here is zee final ruling:

I'll use the part. I'll change it a bit, if thats okay. I'll get rid of the buildings throwing him up in the air and put some sort of cardboard sun in the background so its just peaceful with him walking along. is that okay? I think it would disrupt the flow of it for there to be a whole bunch of calm parts and then one with buildings sporadically shooting out of the ground. :P

cory-leo, I appreciate your critical eye. its too bad you lost your part! :(

love you all.

list of co-authors to be released in the next few days, no later than tuesday.

That sounds good, Morrow, it's perfectly alright if you change it up, no prob.
I too cannot wait much longer for this.

If you guys want to change the sky texture in my part you are welcome too do so. I mostly only put that that in to help me animate it, but you guys can alter it how you please

ok, I've arranged a small picture pack, there's only 5 for the moment, tell me how many more you need.
[Texture 1] - Classic denim design.
[Texture 2] - Dark denim texture.
[Texture 3] - Sunset, pink sky.
[Texture 4] - Strange gold texture, may need colour changing.
[Texture 5] - Classic scrumpled paper texture.

I'm just about finished my part.
I just have to make those buildings reform (not hard)
Then add buildings in the background.
But my bro needs the computer soon. So it might be slightly delayed. But it should be in later tonight,


GAH!

Well, I sent my part off to Morrow a good 14 hours ago or so.
But t wasn't until now that I realized the people of the thread never saw the finished product.

It's nothing super special. Especially compared to some of the awesome stuff others have made.
A Rainy Day in Cardboard City

Nice, Goat-Man, it's pretty good. I liked how the person talked, clever.

cool beans, goat-man!

hey look I said cool beans, aren't I hip and with it.

so. I expect that all of you are trying to do extra parts right now as we speak, hoping to make the midnight deadline. :P

goat man I think I'll chop that part in HALF, if thats okay with you, for suspense, of course. I don't mean that I'll only play half of your part, that would be dumb.. the first part will play, and then there will be a part or two, and then the second part will play!

And fools seldom differ :P
I got the idea from a poem titled Carboard City someone posted near the beginning of the thread.
Part of the poem said something like "but it would suck if it rained"
Did our inspiration come from the same place then?

I showed a friend, and he didn't get the 1 finger sign he made. So I threw the pictorial talking in :D

Thank you good sir

Truely you are.

No problem. I think that would be enjoyable.
Maybe cut it right before the "Emergency Rain Station" comes in?

I dont think so, I mostly read the first post and saw examples of other entries. I dont recall that in a poam.. hmm.

I looked at it again. And a better cut might be right after the clouds form above the guys head.
Otherwise not enough happens in the 2nd part of it.

deadline!

now for ya'll (morrow and nick) to put the pieces of this wonderful puzzle together. let's get it done!!!

Response to Cardboard City, a Collab 2008-07-10 17:56:46


yeah we're pretty close!

right now I'm just going over the part, making sure I haven't overlooked any parts. here's a list of whats left:

To Do
-check over pages 5-14
-wait for nick/coolio to finish preloader game
-get all the parts into the timeline
-put the preloader game in the preloader :X
-add sky textures
-sync the WHOLE ENTIRE THING to the awesome jaga jazzist music jake found
-add buttons on the menu to return to preloader game/dr.clay's standalone/dr.clay's easter egg
-CALL IT A DAY!

so yes, that is it. I'm sure I'll come back to this list so I don't forget stuff I need to do.

oh, marcy, can we put your part after the credits? I'm starting lose confidence in how well that would go over with audiences, and that it would sort of defeat the peaceful/artsy vibe that the whole piece carries. I still really really really want to use it, just, after the credits, if thats okay. :)

co-authors.

this is really hard. I was supposed to have these out on like, tuesday, but I didn't, and I still don't! we're two people over the limit if me and nick are correct in our double checked list of contributors, which is really too bad, because everyone's done a really great job. you all deserve spots. but I can't give them to all of you! :(

hopefully I'll have a list by tonight, as I would like to submit this before I go away for a week on saturday.


BBS Signature

Response to Cardboard City, a Collab 2008-07-10 18:04:43


actually I'm changing my mind, marcy, we'll use like, 90 percent of your part BEFORE the credits, and then just the very end with the balloon and the BWAA after the credits.

and I'm combing the thread stealing images and those poems gatling found, ziwon I'm using your beauty queen picture :)
