Yes way! Okay so this may sound insane, but we decided to attempt creating a second bumper with the remaining days left until the deadline. That left us with only two days to create the bumper from start to finish.<\/p>\n

Since we had already submitted ‘Everything Animated’, this second bumper wasn’t so much about trying to come up with a super creative idea. In fact, the idea came to us prior to even deciding to go for it. We’ve been receiving massive amounts of positive feedback on our ‘Everything Animated’ submission, and the sheer love and support from the incredibly talented people in the MyToons community has been overwhelming! That’s what inspired this second bumper.<\/p>\n

The idea behind this one is based off of the actual community of MyToons. Everyone is incredibly nice and there is so much talent, it’s a massive inspiration just being there! Once we were able to check out other people’s submissions to the bumper contest, it was not only inspiring to see, but fascinating how diverse the art and animations styles were. How cool would it be if there was a project with all of these diverse art and animation styles, combined into a single scene? That’s what this bumper (that we’re calling ‘Community’) is all about.<\/p>\n

With the length of time that we had to finish this, we unfortunately couldn’t reach out to other artists and animators to have them contribute, so we made it a little in-house experiment. Normally we would conform our artwork to fit a single style, but in this project we wanted everyone’s artwork raw and specific to their own style.<\/p>\n

As soon as we had the concept down in our minds, we got started working on it immediately. We knew that it was a VERY long shot of us getting this done in time, but we took the chance anyway. We started around 1:00 pm (PST) on February 26th, 2008\u00a0and ended up finishing (and submitting) it at exactly 8:02 am (PST) on February 28th, 2008. The competition deadline was at 11:59am (CST), which was like 8:59 am for us. So in other words, we managed to finish and submit it with only 57 minutes to spare.<\/p>\n

This one runs about 21 seconds, and it has a wide variety of characters from cartoons that we currently have in the works, combined with the 60+ random character designs that we came up with when we first started. We’ll be sure to tell you more about the development process in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
