[ENDED] #Christmas2020 Animation Contest
Read the rules: http://sticknodes.com/the-christmas2020-animation-contest/
When your animation is done and uploaded to Youtube, make an update post below linking it. It obviously has to be a public video.
One entry per person. If you make a new entry, be sure to specifiy it’s a replacement.
I will keep a post that I will update periodically with a list of all entries, in the form of a list of [name … youtube link]. That post is here: http://sticknodes.com/members/ralph/activity/923314/
Please do not @ me when you make the post with your animation. I will check this group and update the above post once every day or two. So again, please no “@ralph here is my entry lololo” please…please.

The joke : B)
-
Catch the present >:)
https://youtu.be/rgFX5y2PrYM-
laughed immediately at the water sound when drinking
fun little entry tho, nice idea
probs won’t win but still nice-and i only say that to help you/others with their entries so I don’t mean to be overly-critical but… It was a charming little idea and started off promising but as it went on it ended up slowing down, nothing too “wow” with visuals or any post-editing stuff (music/sounds/etc, so it was very quiet). And no real payoff at the end. Basically the *entertainment* factor became lacking – which again is the big criteria for judging these.

Replying to:
So , we make more splashscreens for you then ?
-
Current progress, at a stopping point while I figure out how to go about breaking the node limit, potentially through that new movieclip method although that’s low quality so I might have to try the way Explosive Bullet showcased on one of his videos.
I also need to create a different sleigh for Ralph along with Christmas attire for the Admins and of course Ralph, make some trees for background and finally to make a starry night background.
Here it is.
-
eyy thats nOic
2020-11-17 23:37:36 UTC -
It’s a lot of white but as mentioned I will be creating that starry night background and trees to help it be a but easier on the eyes.

Something is different about spookus, maybe he trimmed his cilia.
2020-11-17 23:39:22 UTC-
Replying to:
I flipped the themes over completely.
Pumpkin knuckles now reindeer.
Pumpkin belt and knee strap faces now snowmen.
Christmas style, I will add a few final touches to Spookus’ design.

Here is your Christmas Style OC. I hope it’s to your liking, I didn’t want to add any sweaters or anything as it would be to overwhelming, I want to keep each OC with some recognisability.
-
i love the way it looks like a christmas tree
2020-11-17 22:33:48 UTC -
time to christmasify all of the things
2020-11-17 22:38:38 UTC-

Dude this is amazing! Thank you so much for this, I think it came out perfectly. I especially love that little star on the hat. Amazing work as always Lemon.
2020-11-17 23:04:12 UTC-

Sorry if it was a little hard working with too, the base I used for it was a little wonky, as-well as the wings.

2020-11-17 02:27:06 UTC -
what is this
2020-11-17 02:34:48 UTC
-
Low quality, but it’s okay, I guess.
-
Made under 30 seconds tbh.

Replying to:
I picked a random 1:1 background pic and then slap the logo.
-
Replying to:
same w/ me and sticknodes
-
it’s actually quite good thx m8

I guess that this is actually better than the splash screen contest. You need much more effort to make your entry and the prize is pretty good (mostly enough to buy a decent phone or better equipment or something. Anyway, I\’m thinking to boost EB\’s server to level 2, 20 Nitros cost $99.80 (mostly RM399 in Malaysia). Well, I\’m pretty sure that I can\’t win.
My entry is actually a side story of my story (and not a big deal actually) where Giuseppe chases a random mobster in the countryside, it sets in December 24th 1933. This is a plot for the full version of my entry (which breaks the rule).
The short version is simple, Giuseppe returned home after the chase and then decorates his home with Christmas stuff (I don\’t actually know because I\’m Muslim, not a Christian).
I wanted to have fun, is all. But if won, I\’ll spend it for something useful.
Here\’s a sneak peak from the full version.
https://youtu.be/arSRJ_DelW8-
that was a cinematic af 13 seconds
curious how you do that slow-pan speeding up effect
kinda is tough with SN no? or is there any post-editing there
(just bc in SN you can run out of horizontal room fast and gotta kinda hack to get the effect to work right)-
Replying to:
Auto-camera. I used ease in.
I don’t really blend a lot with my editor, Most of the time, I’ll use it to add music and subtitles, something like that.
Using SN for making subtitles is pretty hard for me since textfields can be a little off and there is no auto arrange. And yeah, grammar errors. You can’t fix it in SN easily.2020-11-16 16:47:06 UTC-
Replying to:
yeah
layers would solve so many problems, like the text thing
why didn’t u ppl tell me to code in layers from day 1
-
-
just realized that i accidentally said that it’s nitro. it’s actually server boost
-
Pls I’ll love it if you can pls explain how you animated the bar ground move if I don’t mind you animating and sending it to my gmail pls it’s really giving me a lot of problems here I beg you show me how you did it.
-
My internet isn’t great right now nor has been from yesterday onwards so i’ll say this while I can.
Progress on the Christmas animation is going well, yesterday I planned the whole animation roughly and today I made more OCs in Christmas style / with Christmas things, my favourite designs are Lucky’s and K-Zilla’s. I have completed 14 users including myself.
If you’re interested leave a link to your OC below, keep it simple, use filebin.net as you save me time or at the very least give me the link or your OC submission.
I just need to add a few more users, the admins and Ralph, then finally a background.
-
Thanks for the update Lemon, cant wait to see the final product. Just a quick question though, since it’s Christmas time soon could you send me my themed oc once you finish the animation?
2020-11-16 00:01:01 UTC-
Replying to:
Sure, would need to fix it up a bit with layering but that shouldn’t take too long.
2020-11-16 00:39:40 UTC-
Replying to:
Righty, thanks dude
-
have I been completed?..
-
Replying to:
Yes, it’s kind of funny actually, you’re dressed as an elf.

Well, Hello there
2020-11-15 06:00:56 UTC

I didn\’t get a clear asnwer (from ralph himself), so here it is again. Doesmy animation have to stay along the lines of \”the christmas morning\” or can I do whatever I want? Of course using Xmas figs and such.
-
Anything related to christmas, or the new year
-
Replying to:the story, or the figs? (if you need, I can tell you the story)
-
Replying to:
Story I think
-
Replying to:
… well th (1) stinks and (2) would be very boring..
-
-
-
-
“Animations can be about anything (action, humor, a side-story of your existing lore, a parody, etc) as long as it is Holidays-related. Christmas, Hannukah, Santa – or even New Year’s-related (2020 vs 2021?). Things like Halloween vs Christmas or similar themes are okay too. Be creative.”
-
Replying to:
ok cool. that means what I’m doing will be accepted!
-
-
I’m curious. If you win the big prize. What would you do with the money?

Is that a god damn Santa or a god damn cowboy.
this contest is going sideways and im getting curious just how far sideways we gonna go
sideways? in what manner, im working on a spiderman movie and these are projects that i have worked on, so my viewers are entertained whilst i work.
