Greetings,
I have a couple question regarding the contest.
1) What are the parameters of the comic animation category? When I think of comic, I think superheroes. Would a fairy-tale qualify as a comic?
2) The contest says original character designs. If I were to take an existing character from folklore and put an original design on them, would that qualify?

Hi Mythcons,
Comic category refers to style rather than comic book superheroes. So characters in the style of Garfield, Archie comics, Peanuts, South Park, that sort of thing.
The design of your characters should be your own but they can be based on characters from folklore. As long as it is an original design you will be fine.

Awesome, thank you for the prompt clarification.
CrazyTalk Animator is very easy to use, once you get used to it. I had previously purchased the Standard Version. I may upgrade once the competition is over.

I have another question. Are there any limitations on how many people can work on a project? I'm sharing artwork duties with another artist. He does some of the designs, I add art where appropriate and do the animation work.
I've been getting great tips from the Facebook group.

Hi Mythcons
Of course not. You can work with others. Reallusion will judge based on the final video.
BR, Ola

Hello. I do not know who to ask about the Animation at Work 2018 competition. This video
Video Title: ON MARS Director: Nikolay Trendafilov Rusenov
has confused the categories. May I put it back in the category.

love the characters and attention to detail - spaceship environment is especially good, and the video display screen is a brilliant touch.

One thought - I wondered why you had submitted this film into the "Business" category. It would seem a better fit in the "Comic" category. Noticed this is also true of several other "Business" films.

Thanks, Howard, for the compliment, One of the requirements for the 'Comic' category is "Original character designs are required." Not all the characters are designed/created by me.

I posted my animation to the Comic division 4 separate times and I don't see it posted yet. I started 1 week ago. Anyone else having problems? Here's my link:

pmurphy, no problem on my side. I posted yesterday and within 4 hrs it appeared in the Entry section. Perhaps, there are certain rules & regulations not being observed.

Hi everyone! Seen some great video's. Here's a link to mine. Based on true story.
This is the (true) story of a US Marine named Zxelio. He has seen the horrors of war and has a story to tell you. Please listen to him tell you in his own words and voice. (sorry about the BEEPS). Some truths are hard to swallow. Zxelio knows what he is talking about. Wars are pointless and cause nothing but death and suffering. It was Zxelio's wish that this message would be made into a video and shared with the world. He send me the recording of his voice, which I used for this video just before he went into combat.
I have never heard from Zxelio again. Where ever you are Zxelio, the world will hear your voice.
STOP ALL WARS!

vepop (7/19/2018) Retrosleep, your work is awesome! I like,
Hey thanks!, I really embarrassed myself though. I'n the description I wrote I used CTA2 out of reflex but I obviously used 3, Wish I could go in and correct it. You had an interesting video yourself.
