tvdirector911 Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 I am working on a pilot children’s program – I am in need of assistance animating 2 additional scenes. – It is rather straight forward animation – I am using 2d background plates and animating 3d characters in front. You can view a short :30 sec example of one of the scenes. S3_V1.wmv Here is the catch – I need the other 2 scenes - aprox 2 min each done by next Friday. Please let me know if you are interested – Thanks, Sam email - - sam(at)un-reel.com cell - - 904-813-6066 Quote
tvdirector911 Posted January 10, 2007 Author Posted January 10, 2007 To update – I am getting some of the same questions – The back sell is this – The program is called Professor Woodpeckers Tree House – It’s a pilot program that consist of live action – A person in a Woodpecker suit and 3 kids – then to tell the story they change into animated characters – the woodpecker and the 3 kids. The 2 episodes I need are Banana Sandwiches – In this episode the cast find themselves in a jungle and they meet Jerry the guerrilla – who tells them about bananas and how they are good for you. For that episode we need a couple of background plates that look like the jungle and I don’t have the guerrilla – but I was hoping to find something out there in the animation community. The other episode is Cereal – In this episode the cast find themselves on a farm and they meet Billie the goat who tells them about all the things on a farm that are used to make cereal. We need Billie the goat – once again I was hoping to find something in the animation community. As well, we need a few background plates that look like backgrounds on a farm – We do have the primary characters – 1 Woodpecker 3 kids We do have a script We do have the voice over work done We are trying to get this done for $1,000 to $2,000 Please let me know Sam 904-813-6066 cell Quote
Nunsofamerica Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 well, I could give it a try. As long as you have all the models, and everything. I cant do the mouth actions though, that will be left up to you. and also, is this going to be on tv? umm, so send me an email at nunsofamerica@yahoo.com Quote

I cant do the mouth actions though, that will be left up to you. and also, is this going to be on tv? umm, so send me an email at nunsofamerica@yahoo.com I would need the animator to do the lip synk as well as the action - As I stated in my prior post - this is 2d background plates with 3d characters in front. As far as the TV side - this is just to show the concept only - thats why its 2d with 3d over - and not paying too much attention to lip synk and primary - secondary annimation. If this project goes somewhere then we would need to do more - and have a real budget - for now its a concept piece. thanks, sam Quote
Nunsofamerica Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 let me give it a try. where can I get the models? Quote
higginsdj Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Sounds like a bit more than just animating........ Several background plates PLUS 2 new models PLUS rigging those models PLUS animate all the characters in each of 2 x 2 minute scenes and all by next Friday! Cheers Quote

Several background plates PLUS 2 new models PLUS rigging those models PLUS animate all the characters in each of 2 x 2 minute scenes and all by next Friday! Cheers I understand the level of work needed - I just completed one of the episodes personally. As far as the elements needed – the background plates are easy – istockphoto.com and a simple photoshop effect and you’re done. The other 2 characters I know might be a challenge but I was hoping to find something out in the animation community. The realistic approach is to find 2 separate animators to each grab a scene – 1 scene in 8 days is very realistic. And I don’t think $1,000 a piece for some part time work is all that bad. Remember this is to show concept – if you note the example that I showed – its getting it close – not perfect. All in all – I hope are those in the animation community that might be up for a little fun and a challenge. Thanks Sam Quote
