I will be updating the main page soon, I've been a bit busy with my work on the new site. I am really looking forward to seeing the entries for this competition, you guys have a variety of ideas and I'm loving it.

Can we make a to be continued story?, but a complete finished animation


No. The story should begin and end in one animation.

Quote from guramecon
speaking of which Jeff, can you give us a little bit more of the theme explanation?
just to make sure.


Is there anything you needed clarifying specifically?

Quote from nyneicon
How serious is the cursing limitation? I understand that you want to regulate it to ensure that our animations remain relatively mature and appropriate. But is that to say that cursing is completely prohibited, even when it's used seriously? My entry is gonna be focusing on father to son domestic abuse and is suppose to sync with the music. The song which is The Reflecting God by Marilyn Manson has some swearing in the chorus. Is that too much?


I think maybe that's a bit out of scope for this competition. Swearing is one of those things that most people have a strong opinion on one way or the other, and we decided last competition that it was better just to ask authors not to include swearing because it was difficult to tell how it would be received by the audience.

if i adapt some movie element in a movie before 2016 is catagorized something old?


I think? Old and new are relative, "old" could be something that happened 5 minutes ago if "new" was happening now, if that makes sense. If you're comparing pre-2016 movies to 2016 movies that would definitely qualify.

Jeff, just wondering if there's AS3 version of Official Stickpage Branding :D I'm using animate CC that can't operate AS2


We actually don't have one at the moment but it would boost your originality score to make one ;)

Jeff, I think if I do drama, the emotion won't be conveyed since stickfigures can't really make people cry or something. Probably sad but not to the point of almost crying. Cartoons could do a better job on drama.

Soooo, can I just revamp my old favorite animation?

FLLFFL v Terantula: Revamped

I might even consider doing a revamp of all his battles in one animation. It still fits the theme right? Is there a downside on this?

EDIT:
Nvm, it lacks originality (I think).
I'll do Superstition vs Science Fiction
Beliefs in the past vs beliefs for the future.
