Seeking artists for 90 min animated film!

[ninject]

.........L O L.

No offense but maybe you should start with something a little less ambitious.. Like a 5 minute movie.. Do you have any kind of funding? Good luck, I think you'll need it.

I don't believe it's possible to render even 30 minutes of full frame CG without a budget. I'm with Hordak, set your bar lower, if you can make a promising 5 minute short then you'll likely get more people on board for 90 minutes.

If you were to complete a 30-60 second proof of concept with your collab team you would be able to count yourself as one of the 'lucky', 'dedicated' or 'few' to finish something with the collab method. It doesn't happen as easily as your ambitions seem to indicate.

As one who has "been there, done that" and has been FL here on CGTalk's Collab forum as long as it's been around I have to tell you to start small and see how that works first. No one here is going to take your fresh out of college, wide-eyed ambivalent optimism seriously (as evident by the first couple of posts here).

I hate to have to be the one who rains on your parade, but your posts should serve as an example of how not to ask for help with a collab project. Not only did you post to the wrong forum, but you ask blindly without offering any information as to what you are bringing to the table. No one wants to work with someone who isn't prepared to do their homework, lead by example or share what they have done already.

Sorry, but it has to be said. Too many naive artists go this route without the slightest understanding of what's involved. If you had done any research into the collab process you'd have already realized all of what I'm telling you to be true.

Thanks for the info everyone! I know you guys didn't want to "rain on my parade", but I am glad you did. It is giving me a lot to think about.

I would offer you my services if you are able to provide concept art and a realistic outline and schedule for your project.

All the best and good luck,

Leon

best way to go about it is a proper story board or better - an animatic - that is badass enough to inspire people (and producers) with your vision. if you cant do that with an animatic/concept art, then dont bother with CG.

[CGIPadawan]

Well you could use a few re-writes... the opening vignette sounds like it borrows from STAR TREK The Motion Picture and STAR TREK Generations.....

What's this story REALLY about?

I totally agree with Kirt what all he said is true.
if u r able to produce a 60 secs to 5 mins short in a collab, then u can definitely try for longer ones, first u just see how the collab works out with a small short, and based on the kind of out put u get and the time it takes to pull everyone in everytime and get the things done whoa ........ its not that easy .... im saying this out of my own experience i had just to produce a 2-3mins short.
Believe me u must start with something small to get to know where u stand and to judge urself.
I would be glad to join u if u r having any plans to make a short or if u can give me a clear vision about ur 90 mins film
