Hey guys! This is a small competition/collab idea I've had for a while.

Objective(s):

As the title says you have to invent something that you would want to be in your future! Be it an object of any kind, a law of physics, a person, an animal, advanced artificial intelligence, ANYTHING! Or the alternative to that is improve upon something that already exists in our world right now. Simple, no? Here's where your creativity needs to kick in: you need to present or convey your invention in the most awesome way possible - (The word 'awesome' in this context is up to you to read into). It could include the usual stick figure we've all grown to love over the years talking about it to you like in one of those infomercials, it could include an animated slideshow (with animated slides DUUUHUHUHU), it could even be shown in action during a fight between two sticks to the death or pretty much any way you want to do it. But I need to emphasize that creativity is key.

Rules:

Program: Any version after Flash MX 2004, (I'm thinking of making this into a full blown collab if it goes successful).
FPS: 24, (30 if you really really need to), preferably 27
Dimensions: 550x300

Other stuff:

-Name your symbols; eg. Mercury_head, Mercury_ hasabigone, yeah you get the idea.
-After you're done with your animation, just upload it to Fileize.com and send me the link in a private message.
-You can add your own SFX (but if I feel that some of them need to be changed, I reserve the right to do so).
-You can use your own V-Cam
-There is no due date as of now.

Prizes:

-Custom made anim intros for you and a friend.
-Your RHG in full body. You can choose the art medium.
-*More stuff to be added*

Entrants:

As Alucard said to the master librarian, "I'm interested in this."

You might as well put 27 if you're going to present both as an option.

But uh, yeah I'd like to do this. For a HOVERBOARD COUGHCOUGH

Updated, and I made a really small and vague example of what you could do. But I think if you read some of the key parts of the objective section, you'll get how to do it. I think it's simple enough to understand....right?

No, it's not like that. It's not locked down to one object you have to choose. You have to create something that you want to have when you grow up that doesn't exist now or hasn't in the past. It can be anything you can think of, it doesn't have to be an object. It can be an animal, it can be a person, it can be a vehicle, it can be a system of politics (although that would be really hard to show unless it was a douchy one). That's what I mean by anything. I mean ANYTHING AT ALL!
