Ive seen many great artists in both flash and easytoon here on SPP. however, being inspired by the game Mirrors Edge, i decided this: why hasn't there been many first person view animations? Ive seen one made in pivot, but pivot's animation capacity leaves a lot to be desired. So here is the challenge - to make an animation with FPS views that is more than 2 seconds long.

Now the challenge isnt for a "prize", for having a poorly drawn graphic in your signature is almost annoying in a way to me. Its kind of a challenge of ones determination and talent, the outcome of which would be rewarding in its own way.

Here's how i would set it up:

1. begin with drawing your "hands." This could come in a wide variety of poses, with or without guns, infront of you or at your sides, maybe even missing a finger.

2. Figure our what the plot of your animation will be. maybe a huge WW2 fight scene, or maybe someone getting some toast.

3. Get a rough idea of what your background will be. A white background is perfectly fine, but I'm sure that a well executed rooftop scene or otherwise scenic view while destroying people (or getting toast) is much better.

(optional) make a short animation with FPS view to see if you can handle it.

4. Create animation

5. Post and recieve many praise.


Rules:
Must be in FPS view
Must be more than 2 seconds long

Blugil he means a first person ANIMATION. Not a video game clip. Meaning make it with a animation program like flash,pivot etc.
