Title: Animation Competition Mar 28 - Apr 8
Post by: Twirlly on Wed 28/03/2007 04:28:01
Well without further delay here's the next animation competition. So here's the story:
While you were walking down the street one day minding your own business some old guy who looked rather mysterious gave you 5 “Magic” Seeds. When you got home curiosity got to you and you decided to humor the old man and plant them in an old flower pot you had around the house. Show me what grows from the seeds.

Theme: Curiosity

Looking good, neelhound. Major improvements over your previous animations. The frames where he's pouring the water aren't as good (the water goes back into the bucket), but overall, a much better entry than I've ever seen from you before. Keep working at it, and you'll be a great animator

Sorry for the delay again my business has been picking up, which is good for me and bad for the comp, but here are the results:

First off I'd like to say that I greatly appreciate the 7 entries for this competition and that you're all winners in my eyes. I love this competition.

*neelhound â€" It's  pretty funny how the bird just flips over and snatches up the seeds. I hope he doesn't get a tummy ache from eating upside down.
*KC â€" I like how the beet sprouts a flower. That was a very creative thing to do.
*InCreator â€" I love the baby dragon, but the animation has a few fuzzy parts.
*theatrx â€" This entry made me think about a great movie “Little Shop of Horrors”. I don't know if it was your inspiration for the comp, but I love it. Although I hope your flower monster doesn't eat humans.
*Akatosh â€" A very funny scenario even though the old man in my story did just give you the seeds and they weren't bought.
*BaRoN â€" The flowers are absolutely gorgeous and as usual your animation is very fluid, but you shouldn't have changed your idea because someone did it(great minds think alike), your own creativity would have distinguished the two entries, but I understand you don't want to seem like a copy cat.
*AmongtheFallen â€" The explosion is beautiful it reminds me of a leprechaun's pot of gold at the end of a rainbow although it ends in annihilation. Talk about mass destruction, a few seeds destroying all of Earth, what a concept. I guess curiosity really did kill the cat and… uh… everything else.

Now the winners:

1st:   theatrx
2nd:  KC
3rd:  BaRoN


Sorry, I didn't have time to make trophies.
