Animation Exposure on Sierra Mist website


#1

I wanted to ask if anyone would be interested in a competition or submissions of existing funny animations to be hosted on www.sierramist.com

They are a client of mine and I have been asking them about getting exposure to animators with funny animations. They are receptive, but want to know how many people would be interested before commiting.

It could possibly be a competition at some point, but for starters it may just be a place to show stuff you have already completed.

I am excited personally to have a platform like this, but didn’t know how you guys might feel.

Thoughts? Concerns?

One thing I forgot to mention which could be pretty cool is that you could have a link to your site as well. If you go to the site right now and click in the comedy club, Mist-Takes, and click on Jim Gaffigan’s profile he has a link to his site so there is no reason why we couldn’t do the same here.

I think it’s a cool idea. But I’m not sure how much funny animation has been generated by messiah. Haven’t seen many…

I haven’t either. I will probably post this same question in other forums as well. It’s open for all. Thus, it’s not application specific or anything like that. As a matter of fact, it’s not even 3D specific. Just any animation at all that is funny.

Why aren’t people replying to this idea? Your thoughts and concerns can only make it better. If we have a contest, what would be cool to give away? What would hold you back, etc? What if they were shown in a theater? There’s all sorts of extensions from doing this.

The ideas and animations and even still renders just need to be humorous. We are targeting a 24 yr old multicultural male. That’s fairly open.
