Hey guys, if you've read my introduction you may know I'm Chinese.
I've just made my first stick figures animation project, I think it REALLY TERRIFIC!
Here it is:
[SIZE="5"]MAIN STORY:[/SIZE]
The story depends on San Guo Yan Yi (Romance of the Three Kingdoms) , an ancient Chinese literatury work written by Wu Cheng'en in the Ming Dynasty (About 5 centuries ago), it's said that some pieces of his work are TRUE, means that some stories of his have ever happened in history.
The animation must be the same to the story, but the characters, such as Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Zhu Geliang, are stick figures.
It may be a great challenge to every animator, because I don't know if anyone in the forum has ever read this book called Romance of the Three Kingdoms. But I don't hope my idea being wasted, so if you give me a general help, I'll thank you a lot.
P.S. I cannot speak or type English very well, please tell me whether there's any words you don't understand. :Smile:

People will never animate a whole book. You could select certain important scenes of the book and have each participant to your collaboration animate one. Post the full scenes here, so people don't have to read the book. Anyway, you should first make sure you know how to compile a collab no problem. Try putting together some of your anims to test that. (that if you have made any anims or even have Flash, which I hope you do, else this thread is basically a 2 minutes' waste of time). You also need a set frame rate people will use for their entries else every entry will have its speed modified after compilation. You also need a set resolution. Oh, and my advice is not make your project ENORMOUS, start of with something shorter and easier, you're just a beginner for now.

Not bad, but you shouldn't just expect everyone to have read the book before. Make this a lot more specific.
What you should do is tell everyone exactly what they have to do, cause we all have no idea what we're supposed to be animating.
