anyone who would like to become an animation artist?

[danidivine]

so im new in this field,so like the title say maybe we setup a team...
sound silly,anyway all things start from an idea,and yeah when you look up to the animation they do these days...but i think about all the tools and the"new technology"will make things a lot easy kinda think,word up

I would love to be an animation artist. I totally agree with your saying that all things start with an idea. I have to admit, I'm new also. I have made a few AMVs (Anime Music Videos) in the past but they were nothing amazing. I'm not that great a drawer too so that would make things alot more difficult. I use the kick ass program Vegas 8 Pro and that is one of the very best programs that you can use out there, way better then Windows Movie Maker. Even just making a manga would be a dream come true, but I would need to come up with an idea for the storyline, plot, setting, characters, clothes among other things. But it would still be awesome.

hey man i think its kinda a good idea,we can set up a team to do illustrations and all!

[Grayfox26]

Alright that would be cool. Do you know anyone else that can help us get this started?

Hell no. I don't have the patience. I can do voice acting if you need it, though.

Sure that would be great!! If we do decide to continue with this, we need to know where were going and what direction that will lead us. I say what we do right know is post some art just to show how good we are. After that, if we have any spare videos like AMVs or just some random stick figure movies we should post links to those also. I convinced my friend who lives nearby to help with this also. He's one of the best animators I've ever seen. I also suggest that protoAuthor record himself doing some voice overs or just reading a dramatic line from a book or Manga. I'll start out by posting some art that I've done over the years.

Those are nice drawings, I'll post some of what I do (sigs, editings, wallpapers..etc) in the upcoming days since I dont have anything in this computer heh

Ok that's fine, just take your time lol. When you post what you have to this tread, I'll post some videos (AMVs, and random stuff) on my Youtube profile so you and others can view them.
