Re: The Animation Challenge

How long until you're finished?

I've decided that I'm going to become immune to several select, non-lethal poisons, then put them in my snacks to discourage sneaky snack snatchers. -Littlebrick

Re: The Animation Challenge

I cannot believe I'm saying this, but...I don't think I'll be able to enter this contests now. I have only 10 days until the deadline, my pieces have yet to arrive and getting up at 5:00 AM to animate has been having ill effects on me. If I had been able to resolve my studio situation sooner and just buckled down and stuck with one story/setting for the duel from the start, I would have been able to enter. Alas, it is no use lamenting on the past, for it cannot be undone.

I shall do my best to get something done for this contest, but I make no promises. I am sorry to all of you who were looking forward to my entry and whom I've given false hopes. But at least I accomplished what I set out to do. I enticed one (and perhaps two) of the greater brickfilmers into making a kick-ass duel, for there aren't many and it seemed no one had any intention of making one on their own, so I decided to try this. Ah ha. Yes, this was a kind of a setup, I admit. However I did fully intend on entering myself, I am quite disappointed in myself for failing to do so.

Ha, and this is also my 1,000 post. Happy 1,000 posts to myself.

I am so sorry.

Re: The Animation Challenge

If there's anyone who doesn't care about the deadline, I can do lightsabers in AE now. They aint the best, but they aint the worst either. Plus AE has an automatic motion blur generator.

I'm back. Possibly.

Re: The Animation Challenge

Filmyguy's animation watching frame by frame is very interesting.
The only problem is that his animation is so smooth that I need to change the lightsaber position EVERY FRAME (and yes, that's alot)

Re: The Animation Challenge

^ So Filmyguy is doing one, very good. mini/smile

And I'm sorry to hear that Bricklord.  I hope you finish it even after this thing is over.  Mine is almost done, and if all goes as planned it will be ready for the weekend.

Re: The Animation Challenge

Filmyguy, Fancypants, and possibly BrickLord. With T.G. Tom and (I think) MOL doing effects. This is gonna get awesome.

Re: The Animation Challenge

Don't you mean "though"? And their shouldn't be a space between the three periods, plus there should be a period at the end of the sentence.

Re: The Animation Challenge

We would like to make better lightsaber videos, but our problem was that Axogon Composer has a few, well, difficulties that annoy us.  For example, whenever you click somewhere while editing, it zooms in, and you can't zoom back out!!! mini/eek Also, if your animation is really smooth, the lightsaber moves while your animation isn't!!!  (By the way, when does this competition end?  And where are some of your guys' entries?  We'd like to see them!)
