Yeah, we're going for a higher standard of animation than blatant gradients and simple motion tweens.

Depending on which part of your body you are thrusting, I co-thrust you!
But seriously, with Flash you have to use motion tweens. Not for everything, but some things are just much simpler that way.

I would take part but I can't use flash or even download the trial and my voice sucks.

BTW, I wanted to ask... Will the animation look like in this flash?

And hopefully with 100% less Phoenix Wright, homosexual dancing and hugs.
Maybe 98% less hugs, actually.
And god damn it T-Jack, that song will be stuck in my head for the rest of the day.

So my idea of the project wasn't completely off...

How about a Phoenix Wright gag reference? Maybe something subtle...

You're going to make everyone here fat if you keep baking so many cookies.
Also I've never played Phoenix Wright so don't expect me to come up with a gag.

Someone has to do it.

Flash is hand-drawn... if you have a tablet, like me.
And I think that cerealkiller will be doing people. If you have trouble drawing scenery, monsters or other non-human things then I guess it would be hard for you.

It's not the drawing itself that's the problem.
I gave a scene a go and when I use textas, I can't hide back ground details with moving characters.

Just say there was a crack in the background, behind where someone's face is, I would end up with a crack on the person's face. Basically It's more difficult than I first anticipated

I use paint to make each frame, and photoshop to change them into GIFs.
I'm not so sure about doing the animating. Probably cause I don't have flash and the methods in which I animate are slightly innefficient.

You still seem to have alot of unconfirmed voice actor roles. Even though I think that my voice sounds retarted when it's recorded, I wouldn't mind going and buying a microphone and showing what roles would be good. If my voice is too retarded then that's okay.

I only really wanna be a part of this cause it sounds like fun. It won't mean so much to me if I'm not accepted for it.

Should have the "From somewhere, a Transmission..." at the beginning of every animation.

The last part was hilarious. But I don't think cerealkiller plans on doing the whole "narration" thing.

Not a bad idea. You got me thinking: At each episode's beginning, we get the standard "From somewhere, a transmission..." message box, FAde Out Fade In into the action, then during a suitable scene we put the title on the screen. Do it right and it'll be awesome.
