Hey everyone, this February you will have the honor of being able to participate in this fabulous contest. Here's how it's gonna work:
- You will work in teams. One person will write, and the other will animate. If it is a big project, you can make it two people for each part. Of course, you can help the animation dudes if you're writing.
- The subject, as mentioned in the topic title, is The Fragility Of The Mind. You have until the 17th of March to come up with something.
- From the 14th to the 17th all participating teams should show me some sort of progress. A script, some animation, whatever. This will help me decide if I extend the deadline or not.
- Not making Clock Flash is allowed and even encouraged. This is a great chance to start on DigitalLemon's idea.
- You may partake in more than one team.
- There will be awards for first, second, and third places.(They're not done yet, anyone who wishes to do so, go right ahead.)
- The winners will be decided by voting.
If you have any questions, PM, or IM(aim: DiscoBallClock)me. You can also post them on this thread.
Oh ya and if you wanna whore out your skills here, go ahead.
Good luck everyone!
Sounds interesting. Has the team thing been done before?
Quote from: CourgetteClock;1724562Has the team thing been done before?
Nope.
Because I feel like it could go either way. The team mates could help to encourage eachother, or it could really slow down the process to people who are used to work alone.
Eitherway I'm stoked about the teams and the entire non-clock idea. Interested in entering this.
I feel like writing, anyone care for animating?
sorry to be pessimistic but im not sure how smooth this is going to go
I would like to write for this. Anyone feel like teaming up?
Examples of previous stories I've written in the past (not screenplays, but close enough):
The Kidnapping of Santa Clock (http://www.briancable.com/view.php?id=9)
A New Leader (http://www.briancable.com/view.php?id=30)
How PineappleClock Got His Smarts (http://www.briancable.com/view.php?id=34)
Also, I think I missed the discussion about DigiLemon's idea, and I haven't been able to find it. Could somebody point me in the right direction?

Sage.. I just noticed you're looking for a collaborator.. what say you?
Any flasher want to partner up with a writer? Here's a few examples of some of the better writing I've submitted to the crew:

I already have a few ideas with where we could go from here, think drugs/ surrealism type stuff. Please PM me if it sounds interesting.
Also clockfans feel free to PM me, don't feel discouraged. I'd love to pair up with a clockfan that is just starting to learn flash and give him a helping start with the crew.
I am up for animating, as long as who writes keeps in contact with me (Steam/AIM/Skype). I usually procrastinate or forget many projects I have to do, so constant bitching and planning can help.
I'm up for animation.
Put me down as an animator, I'll make it more refined than my other work.
Okay "Dave Coulier" and I are working together so expect something from our team!

That's right. I warrant quotations marks. I am that special.
Quote from: Thomas Bangalter;1724563Nope.
Yes it has, we even had a separate site for it at one point.
Quote from: Dave Coulier;1725226That's right. I warrant quotations marks. I am that special.
Well until you find a real name I'm just treating it as a placeholder, that was why I used the quotation marks.
holy shit for the last time dave coulier is his goddamn clock name

More like full suck.
As in it fully sucks ASS
AHHA
Less talk, more work.
Ah damn, I just missed out on collaborating with the legendary Dave Coulier from my TGIF lovin' youth. :(

Dude... Rum is banned.. makes me question if I want to consort with miscreants..
I can do both projects, if it doesn't conflict with the rules.

It doesn't. Go ahead!

I remember the last time a mod used that phrase.

Anyway, yeah, I'm up for this, as long as it doesn't involve freedom-hating.
I can do some writing if someone wants to team up with me.

Everybody keeps their butt plugged for a whole week.
This is allowed and even encouraged.

Discoball is obviously my alt.

Shhh...
This is something I can dig.
So wait, I still don't get the theme/topic we're going for.
Quote from: SchnozzberryClock;1726683So wait, I still don't get the theme/topic we're going for.
How so?
Quote from: Thomas Bangalter;1726684How so?
Quote from: Thomas Bangalter;1724561- The subject, as mentioned in the topic title, is The Fragility Of The Mind.
I don't really know what this entails.
Willing to animate for first writer who sends me something.
Quote from: SchnozzberryClock;1726702I don't really know what this entails.
Well, write/animate something about the (human) mind. Behaviors, thoughts, whatever. It's a pretty open theme if you ask me.
Anyone who doesn't get it is obviously a dummy.
Quote from: BTF;1726705Willing to animate for first writer who sends me something.
The cabalistic one from Kryturd has joined the crew, eh? Welcome.
You may be a being of preeminence on Krapton or even NG... but here you are a clockfan.. like me, Fountain and Sunglasses. You are pond scum. Nobody is going to PM you anytime soon. :)
Quote from: Dave Coulier;1726407Dude... Rum is banned.. makes me question if I want to consort with miscreants..
Yeah you're right, I'm a huge fuck up. Don't bother consorting or collaborating with me.
Quote from: BTF;1726705Willing to animate for first writer who sends me something.
I'll do the writing for ya!
This sounds like a good way to get some collaboratory practice in.
Ideally, my writer counterpart would have a good understanding of animation as a storytelling medium, could collaborate with me on storyboards and knows the limitations of an animation.
But i'm open to anyone with a good idea so any writers who'd like to work with me please pm me and ill get back to you asap.
Quote from: Rum;1728084Yeah you're right, I'm a huge fuck up. Don't bother consorting or collaborating with me.
LOL.. welcome back!!

Thanks and screw you too, Davey. :D Got that Mastermind voice done yet I ya asked for?
Quote from: Hourglass;1728092I'll do the writing for ya!
Send me a PM, brother. Let's do this shit.
Quote from: Dave Coulier;1726407I can do both projects, if it doesn't conflict with the rules.
Email is probably the best way to communicate. "cableshaft" at our good buddies at Gmail is the way to do that. I can also pop on IM whenever your availability is established; I just try to avoid going on it without a distinct purpose for the time being.
We should do a bit of brainstorming before I start writing. No sense me working on a story that you're not interested in.
So hey everyone, you can start sending me what you have so far so I can judge whether we need a deadline extension. I'm a bit behind on my work too, so I should start wrapping this up.
Hey Rum?? Anything? An outline.. story board... dirty limerick, perhaps?
Sage?? How about you, bro? I've emailed, PM'd, sent smoke signals...
I'm noticing there seems to be this pattern in our community where people express initial interest in contributing to a project... then never speak of it again?
i will write someone a very poor script if they want to animate
Since my other partners blew me off (whoa, thats sounds kinda homo).. I'd gladly take anything at this point, Patriot.

hit me up on aim sometime tonight and we will brainstorm on a ballin ass story

You catch on fast.
Unless someone can animate some stuff fast, it looks like I am out. Absinthe had a paying gig come along he had to take, and i don't blame him. He needs the cash. If anyone thinks they are a "Bad Enough Dude" To animate a non clock flash dealing with in depth horror themes, hit me up.
To be honest I don't expect anyone to.
Quote from: Dumont;1730123Sage?? How about you, bro? I've emailed, PM'd, sent smoke signals...
sending the PM to newgrounds isn't usually a good idea for me. i can go weeks without visiting the site, and months without logging in. really should have PM'ed me on this site.
but anyway, yeah I did not receive your email. i did reply back to your PM on NG with some rough ideas, that i can flesh out to a full story once i get some feedback from you. if you've already got something going with patriot though, that's cool.
so it's the 17th
i found a writer (nobody contacted me so i asked bombclock) but the story isnt finished
i could probably finish it before the deadline, but honestly the experience of collaborating on the story and stuff is worth way more to me than the final product, so we'll see

ffffffffffffffffffdshkaghsdkhaghdksag I sent you a PM, if Discoball will still let us participate then I'm in.
Yeah so I'm extending this to the
17th of March.Quote from: Telephone;1731342ffffffffffffffffffdshkaghsdkhaghdksag I sent you a PM, if Discoball will still let us participate then I'm in.
Nope sorry you can't. Rules are rules.
Nah I'm just joking. Sure thing.
cool cool :D
Quote from: SageClock;1730704if you've already got something going with patriot though, that's cool.
I got stuck at work late and never got a chance to talk to Da Patriot.
Patriot, thanks for offering but me and cableshaft are back on track.. I appreciate you trying to salvage the project tho..
Assuming Disco is willing to give a couple days to show something on paper..
So. How's things going?
Sage and I are making progress. Hope we can get it together.
School is literally kicking me in the balls and I have had no time to animate, however I did get started on a rough outline so I guess we'll see. Even if I don't make it for the contest deadline I'll still submit it eventually.
Quote from: Ariadne Artiles;1735228So. How's things going?
can I do it with you
This week is somewhat borked for me. I've got 4 tests this week, all right in a row, and all of them I've been behind on my assigned reading. All of my classes are sneaking exams in before Spring Break starts. I'll get the script finished after that.
Yeah so. After our little wipeout thing, I lost the links to all the progress entries, as well as actual completed entries. Ooops! Anyone who would like to (re-)submit a part, please do!
