Our goal is for Newgrounds to be ad free for everyone! Become a Supporter today and help make this dream a reality!
Please don’t use meme audio or unlicensed commercial music; any dialog should be an original recording and any music should come from a royalty-free source or the FNF soundtrack itself.
I have a question about this rule. Can we only put a song like background music or it can be like the gameplay? For example, two characters singing a song from the game?

Many of you have likely noticed Friday Night Funkin’ is a huge hit, on its way to becoming the most popular game in the history of NG.
To celebrate, we’re hosting a Friday Night Funkin’ Animation Jam, with a $5K prize pool from the Funkin’ team (@ninjamuffin99, @PhantomArcade, @KawaiSprite, @evilsk8r) and over $1.25k from the community!
To participate, create an original animation in the world of Friday Night Funkin’.
Rules:
You can include OC’s; there are popular mods out there and it could be cool to see those represented in some way.
It can’t be an animation you made previously, it needs to be made for the jam and include a Newgrounds.com watermark. Don’t have one? PhantomArcade has you covered!
Your entry should be uploaded to Newgrounds before Youtube or anywhere else.

There are no length requirements. Something too short might lack substance, something too long might become boring. Check out the Pet Jam entries for some good examples.

ok no meme audio, but can there be audio from an already existent video on the internet?
Are we allowed to remix or create unofficial music for our entries? For example: let’s say I add a DJ to make funky music while Boyfriend AND Girlfriend battling against 2 more people.
Never mind that . I don’t have any ideas.
hey, I was wondering about transferring the money to different currencies, how will that work?

Ah ok. Thanks.
(I tend to have a bit of a hard time understanding jokes like that on screen. But that's ok. You got me pretty good lol :D )

Cool! Thanks for the clarification :)
Damn, if i was a better animator and learned to mod I would've definitely join in the contest, anyways good luck to everyone participating.
I don't have a creative bone in my body, but I sure as hell will donate to Fnf and this Jam. Best of luck to all you talented animators.

Thanks Tom!
can't wait to lose cuz i can't draw!!!
Guys I'm looking for a team I could make ideas and sketches for the characters and animation and even the backgrounds :D
Could something with only ocs be allowed in the animation? In the world of FnF of course
Can someone please give me a straight answer as to whether or not we can have other IPs in the FunkinJam? I just want to have characters from YGO Arc V in the fnf style battle to one of the songs and I don't want to start only to find out it isn't allowed
I've been working hard at an animation, but I'm not sure where to submit, I don't want my work to go to waste ;-;
If anyone knows how to submit, please tell me ^^
This is my first entry at a Animation Jam, so I hope it's not too obvious ^^;
