Title: Clock Day 2008
Post by: LeekClock on June 11, 2008, 04:10:51 PM
It's that time again - Clock Day (http://www.clockcrew.cc/clockopedia/clockday), August 15th,  is just around the corner!

It's about time you started your Clock Day projects if you haven't already. The prizes (sponsored by Newgrounds (http://www.newgrounds.com)) are very generous this year, as in previous years:

1st: $500 + t-shirt and NG stickers
2nd: $250 + t-shirt and NG stickers
3rd: $250 + t-shirt and NG stickers
4th: $250 + t-shirt and NG stickers
5th: $250 + t-shirt and NG stickers
6th-10th: t-shirt and NG stickers

A selection of winners will be chosen by Clock Crew elders and staff, and Tom Fulp will have the final say, as in previous years (though there has never been conflict over our choices).

All Clocks who submit an animation on this day will receive a participation award on the BBS.

Clock Day Preloader Contest

We're also looking for an official Clock Day preloader! Today marks the start of our Clockday 08 Preloader contest.

Keep in mind, the preloader ought to be appropriate for all movies - i.e., it should be easy to apply to a flash of any width/height; it shouldn't have a massive file size; it shouldn't have so much animation that someone whose movie is at 13 fps will not see the same preloader as someone whose movie is at 30...

The winner's preloader will be distrubuted for all clocks to use on Clock Day, and the creator will also receive a free Clock Crew email account (powered by gmail), e.g. olskoo@clockcrew.cc (olskoo@clockcrew.cc) (you could also just forward mail from that address to an existing email account of yours).

To enter the contest, post a preview (swf) and the actual fla (host it in the cc file library (http://www.clockcrew.cc/talk/library.php)) in this thread. The deadline is July 20th.

The winner will be chosen by popular vote.



Edit: Those seeking actionscripting help, to realise their preloaders, can solicit the help of RomanClock (http://www.clockcrew.cc/talk/member.php?u=218), who has offered his expertise.

Speaking of which, Anti-Clockday is going to be happening again this year. I'll post more on this issue later.

Finished my preloader!

Preview (right-click > play). Make sure you have your sound turned on, as it's the sound that makes this one special, actually.

[flash]http://img413.imageshack.us/img413/4531/cd08predc1.swf width=550 height=400[/flash]

The .fla is bigger than 2 mB (the .fla library limit for preloaders), due to the music file, but the .swf is 48 kB, so no worries there. I'm sure a staff member will help me upload the preloader if you people like the preview.

I'm working on the last few scenes of my Clockday flash. I think it's going to be the best clockmovie I've made so far. Also if I've got enough time I'll finish the 3rd instalment in my Soundless Hills series and submit that for Clockday as well.

SilverClock designed this year's participation award. Not merely pretty and shiny, it's quite clever -- it incorporates the number 8 (of 2008) into the design.

Well, seeing this is my first clockday... I will actually submit a movie!:) It's actually even a (sort of) lame joke with a small story around it, with totally random stuff happening at certain points, as well as a few cameo's, but it won't take too long, since I'm still learning the basics of flash as we speak.

I also have the (off-topic) question, but what does that ''tracking'' thingy do in the preloader roman made...?
