'Sright, I'm back. miss me? didn't thinks so! >.<
>:D

Right, let's go over the rules and some basic FAQ;

Claymations are the freezeframe animations of clay figures, clay figures do not have to be pottery clay, infact, I derecomend that because it'll harden and fall apart as you're using it.

You're claymation will take place during some sort of zombie uprising.

You will use some kind of stop motion animation program. (Do not edit your claymations with any programs at all!)

This challenge finnishes at the end of the weekend, if you don't get yours done by sunday midnight, you'll still have lots of time to finnish, I'll let you submit untill sometime Monday, when I get around to telling you that this is over.

Your claymations will be judged by me (And/or the first few who want to help) by these pros and cons:

Pros: Smooth, decent enough plot, general "Looks cool"
Cons: Choppy, didn't think when you were making it in regards to any plot, general "Looks like crap"

Youre claymations will be rated out of 25

Youre claymations should be at least around 10 seconds long.

I'm not at all sure how to give trophies, but if you win you get this:

Try to have sound effects or music, if you can't it's no big deal though. (Judges, do not demerit)

Here's my videos for... ... refere- examples, that's the word;

**TIP: Part of decreasing choppyness is raising the number of frames per second.

I know this has nothing to do with stickmen, but I thought it was a neat idea. :)

Tell me if there's anything I missed, thanks and enjoy! =D
