Hey,
Is anyone up for an animation play off challenge. We can decide on a topic, animate to it then critique each others work. This would be great if your like me and having troubles not knowing exactly what to animate. Plus a little competition always pushes people that little further. Hear from u soon those who are up for it. 
Cheers,
Ben Nicoloff
I’d be down for something man. I need to beef up my reel in the very near future anyways, might as well set some deadlines. I suggest actually starting in January though, I think these forums slow down during the holidays.
Oh cool!!! impressive animation work btw, saw your vimeo. Deadlines r a must for sure, I’m rounding up random animators to see who wants to join in. Would you be still keen if we get people and stuff to start this during january? Plus got any ideas for the first animation battle?
Thanks Ben! I wold be down for something in january for sure. I’ll start thinking of some ideas. Only suggestion is that we make the animations relatively short. I think one of the reasons the last animation competition didn’t get as many people is that it was a 10 second animation. I’m pretty busy w/ work so putting out something short and sweet each month would be ideal.
Good point Ricardo, We can do without setting any time limits. Thanks for joining Grundel! How about we start this on the 3rd of January? That way we can get over any hangovers that could occur from new years.
I had an idea for the first topic. How about “awkward”. post up any ideas you both have as well aye.
Cheers,
Ben
Hi,
I’d be interested in this - I tend to find it hard to get enough crits on my work so count me in. Also I agree on the 10 second thing, i vote for short and sweet.
My suggestion for first topic: “Revenge”.
Cool :), welcome!!! Everyone add your ideas aye. On the 3rd of January we start. Hope no one loses interest before then.
Cheers,
Ben
Hey Everyone!
We still up for this challenge? Over here in australia it’s the 2nd of January, but I’m not too sure about the date where u all are coz it always seems to be different. Let’s make the topic “awkward” or “revenge” unless some one has a better idea. And make the deadline the 30th of january.
Cheers,
Ben
p.s, there r no time limits or anything.
Yes, it’s the 3rd here in the UK (back to work tomorrow) :sad:
I’m still up for this - I think we should decide on a final subject, so we are all on the same page. I’ve no problems with doing awkward.
I know it’s already Jan. 23rd. here in New Mexico… but 7 days is plenty of time to get a nice fresh “akward” animation out of me! I haven’t done any animation in about 6 months, plus I really need to start building my reel. Count me in!! 
Woo!
Welcome aboard! Yeah short n sweet is pretty easy. Haha, we have people from everywhere in this comp.
Cheers,
Ben
