Thats pointless posting. And now I have to make this post worth something, so I don't look like a jackass... ok... if you want to see the worst flash animation in the world click... http://www.geocities.com/aliens_unlimited/zz-parable.html I warned you. I did it in 10 minutes on Swish. It also takes forever to load. Swish is a program that you can download from swishzone.com it does flash and its rather simple. technically you have to pay for it, but there are "ways" around that.

Hi guys, back again at last. Been asleep for the last week. :-)
Chump -- yes, pointless posting, but don't forget who's thread this is! :-) In all seriousness, though, if somebody doesn't post SOMETHING frequently, the thread will fall off the bottom of page one, and nobody will see it. :-(
BTW, your animation wouldn't load. :-( But I'll keep trying it.
Zed, thanks for your kind offer! It seems all we're missing now is a willing animator... If nobody comes forward with a serious offer, it looks like the concept will die. :-(
PLEASE, SOMEBODY! :-)
Danny

Looks like this will be the only way to get new Futurama now unfortunately.

It would be good for a movie but it will be hard to make a movie if the TV series didn't get a proper end to work from.

Woah, woah, woah, I'm still here!
Don't you go doing anything else, changing anything, or introducing new ideas without me! [Glares at Just Chris]
My idea, my thread, my accolades!
Rant over!
Nobody's under the delusions of 20 minute, 30fps traditional animation, unless we get 500 people who'll work for nothing for three years per episode...? ;-) Maybe Rough Draft's unemployed staff will work gratis, or am I drunk? ;-)
Anyway - I'm still here, and I ain't going anywhere. I'm a little busy with OAOB at the moment but I'm still around.
Let's get started on something - we've been talking about it for three months and there's nothing organised and nothing underway...! :-)

I'd love to see a Zapp Brannigan Short Animation released every once in a while...I like to refer to him as "Mr. Meanwhile."

Hey all, It just occurred to me that people joining this thread after February may be a little confused by me running around like I own the place, even though the thread was started by I LOVE LEELA. To clarify for the newbies: I am I LOVE LEELA - I changed my nick late in January to avoid being confused with Matt Lenehan. Thankee all Danny

I remember hearing wierd stories about that Matt Lenehan and his obsession with Leela, I heard he makes his own inflatable Leela's, is there any truth to these stories? If so do you know if he is selling them?

Read "Loving Leela" and I'm sure you'll realise that you didn't need to ask that question. If they are for sale, I'd be interested... Oof!... [Juliet kicks me] ...In... uh... Something. Danny

Probably, I'm still willing to lend a hand if I knew what we're actually doing.

i think what we need is some sort of animation prog. i think we can call it FAST (Futurama Animation Studio). i will write it, because i think is a nice project. so if anyone has some ideas or talents for the programm functions/stories/animations and so on, send me a mail. i think doing is much better than talking.

RDS uses Softimage Toonz and Maya as their software tools, programs that are really expensive. My copy of Maya was over $1,000, and SiT goes for about $1500. If you want the show to look like it does on TV, it'll take a lot of work by teams of people. I animated a short in one of my classes and it took all semester for a little crummy 30 second clip.
Sorry if this is a downer, we all want to see new Futurama. However, we need writers, voice actors, background artists, layout artists, inbetweeners, digital paint people, 3D animators, storyboard artists, sound effects people, someone to score the episode, editors galore, and many more. It takes a huge team of professionals many months to go from a script to an animatic to actual animation production to a finished episode, so a group of fans from all over the world probably won't get it done. On the other hand, a Flash animation would be significantly easier to put together, just not an episode like we see on TV. My $.02.
