[SIZE="7"]Tower Ascent[/SIZE]
Make an animation of a black stick figure climbing through a tower heres an example of what the tower should look like. Don't make it look exactly like this, this is only an example, basically you're going to draw an obstacle course. have him climb in through the bottom of the frame, have him climb, jump, flip, and maneuver his way through your course then make him climb out the top. You are allowed to add traps like darts, saws, axes, etc. But your stick must be alive and mostly uninjured by the end. When they are all added together it will look like one stick climbing through a tall tower to the end.
DUE DATE IS MAY 16TH
RULES:
Flash Only, if you are using CS3 save it in flash 8 format [drop down menu when saving]
FPS: 24 [or animate at 12 fps then double frame]
Dimensions; 300x600
Background; The color of the ground must be #666666, no outlines, keep it simple, I will add a background behind that to make it look better. YOU WILL NOT BE ANIMATING AN ENTIRE TOWER only a 300x600 segment of the inside of the tower.
Your stick figure must a black medium sized stick.
Your character must be moving UP through the course. no going down or left and right,
You may add other sticks that intercept your stick, but the confrontation can't be a full battle, sort of like if a stick leaps at him, he would block, strike back and continue towards that top. The other sticks must also be completely different colors than the main stick. [anything but black or gray or white]
You may destroy your parts of the tower, but not so much so that it would destroy the whole tower. for example, your stick jumps to a platform, a giant rock comes down to crush him he jumps to another, and the platform he was on is destroyed. However you can not lets say have a bomb that completely destroys the segment. remember that there are other entries to be added after yours, so don't destroy the tower -_-
NO SPECIAL POWERS There are no super reflexes for dodging the traps and defeating the interception sticks. Everything will be realistic. THIS INCLUDES TRAPS I don't want a bunch of anti-gravity traps, and freeze rays. I want the classic, darts, boulders, walls of death, pit of vipers kind of stuff. Think Indiana Jones about this animation, k?
NO VCAM You will only animate one 300x600 section of tower at a time. You may do more than one section if you like though
Add traps, obstacles and challenges as you like. But try not to go overboard with it.
MUST USE REALISTIC PHYSICS I don't want an entry with a stick figure leaping through your course in a couple jumps, or to have him flying all over the place. Try to make it realistic, like hitting the side of the ledge and pulling himself up. Your stick figure has no powers of any kind so keep it that way.
That doesn't mean no acrobatics, You may make him swing himself around a poll do a couple back flips and land on a higher ground. But you must make it convincing. [basically use good physics]
Name your symbols *yourname*1 or *yourname*head. I would name mine Cheesy1 or Cheesyhead. THIS INCLUDES TWEENS!!! I can't stress that enough.
Sign your aniamtion in the upper right hand corner.
Name your fla *yourname*tower.fla I would name mine cheesytower.fla
PM ME YOUR ENTRY. Host the fla file [DO NOT SEND ME THE SWF] on savefile.com then PM me the link.
I will be doing the first entry where he walks into the tower and starts climbing
The final entry will be the stick figure at the top of the tower where theres a treasure of some sort. At that point he takes the treasure grabs a parachute and jumps off the tower. You may volunteer to animate this if you want. but I want a good animator to do it so I will choose from the volunteers.
By the time its finished your "obstacle course" type entries will look like one stick figure climbing a big tower.
