This video was made by and me for the qualifying round of the Skills Canada Ontario 2D Character Animation competition. We came in first, so we will be competing in the provincial level soon.
The prompt we were given was "it was never going to be an ordinary day." We had an hour when we needed to make character model sheets and storyboards. We were not allowed to touch the computers during that time. Then, once the hour was up, we had four more hours to create the actual animation. We were not being judged on sound, and it wouldn't have made sense to spend time doing sound editing, so this video is silent.
No noise for this one. Sound wasn't being judged at this particular competition, and we had limited time, so we spent our effort elsewhere. The next ones we do will be judged on sound, though.
Wow. Considering the fact that you and your team mate made this in roughly 5 hours just rely impresses me. Takes me a couple days to make an animation that long. On a side not, whyyy don't i know about these things? I'm a Canadian animator in Ontario and i want to participate in things like this. It's like i'm under a rock. T_T
Considering the length, and the fact that you only had four hours, thats really awesome! Im sooo icky picky when I animate, I dont imagine I would have made it, not in 4 hours. Congrats, and good luck for the provincial level
Well, being picky pays off in the end My problem is that I'm probably not picky enough, even when I don't have a deadline. I get really lazy when drawing in-betweens so things tend to get sloppy.
Well, we needed a student to put on the absence report, and Calvin had conveniently skipped the afternoon on the Friday before we left for Kingston, so it just sort of worked out
ABSENCE REPORT, CALVIN COUT...
Damn boys. This is one hell of an animation. It's very neatly done! It's very smooth and funny!
Is there any noise involved?

Well, here are some animation competitions/festivals you can do here in Canada (or online), if you're interested:
