Hey Potatoverse, thanks for asking.

I don't put up an age restriction because I don't expect it to be factor to one's skill. I've seen a 15-year-old kid who can decently animate just as well as a college student taking a beginer's course.

Skill-wise, yes, some of the submissions from last year's collab do look more as "moving objects," but this year, I am upping the standards a bit since this year will be its 10th Anniversary.

Hence why I set the deadline to five months from today (I did get commented that it was over-excessive) so most of us can put more effort into the submissions. We have all summer to work on, and maybe a bit of winter vacation if needed. Plus I'll be around commenting and critiquing around so they can improve.

You can come join if you want to challenge yourself. And if it is too much for you, feel free to walk out. At the very least, you learn something if animation is an area you want to get into.

Hey Lusin! Was wondering you gonna join.

You're in, but can't add you officially yet -- currently on mobile. Will take care of that once I'm back to my computer.

Sweet! Glad I made it in time.

Thanks for the reply. I've thought about it and I think i'd be happy to join.

Then you are in! Still on mobile atm so you and Lusin will have to wait a while. You got a discord btw?

The first 15 slots are full, but I still have at least 3 slots open for the Understudies.

Do not worry, if you are an Understudy, you still are going to be in the collab regardless. There will be extra editing involved in my part, so I'm willing to do so.

I don't do any animation, but I sure can support the people that do! :D I am excited to see how this Anniversary turns out! Good Luck to everyone who is participating :)

Yeah I'd be down!

I've just been messing about with different ways of applying my lines in Flash so as of right now, I've only got this test but I love the idea of doing something with some doofy-ass birds so I'm thinking something about the Great Emu War or something
Which, if you're not aware of, I recommend looking in to as it's one of history's most bizarre military operations :P

UPDATES

Rough animatic (changes have been made since this, specifically the character)
https://youtu.be/VUghbheTCh4

Sign me up for the understudy, please.

Can I be an understudy, too?
I normally draw & have done pixel animations in the past, but definitely looking to tackle flash animation.

Alright everyone, the list is full for now! If you still want to join, keep checking this thread from time to time -- there could be people who might want to drop out or become MIA.

@SouthernShotty, Tidohuki said you might join -- are you going to do so?

Yeah, I wanna participate, I've wanted to since last year, are the spots already full?

Good thing I reserved a spot -- though it is only an Understudy slot because I didn't get a confirmation from you. But I will put your piece in the collab regardless

Aw, man. I saw this late. I hope I get the chance to join at some point.

Good chance you might; I'm seeing at least two to three people without any ounce of starting progress.

Check again around mid-July; I'm going to conduct a check-up and if I don't get a response, I'll hace to kick them out.
