BZFlag cartoon.

[Peter]

Here is a BZFlag cartoon I made using stop-frame animation , this was made using `pivot` , it is a free stick-figure animation software.
Sorry about the quality of it , it was taken using a digital camera. If someone could tell me how to take footage of the actual computer that would be a great help.

The cartoon it's self is only 20 seconds long. It isn't supposed to be funny but is more there as a novelty of having a BZFlag cartoon , enjoy .

I am in the process of making a longer better one.

Dude, it made me laugh already. I don't know exactly why. I especially liked the part where the tank jumped on the box, and then the other tanks jumped on the first one. Keep up the good work.

A good program to use is 'Fraps'. Try downloading that a see how that goes.

and for the cartoon, I watched it with some friends and we laughed, only because we didn't know what was going on

[JeffM]

or just save it as an animated gif in the save menu.

[Peter]

Note to all people watching it , there is no more `cartoon` after 55 seconds into the video , just the credits and the rest of the music.

[Grace F]

You should have ended the clip, when you shot your last text. Then rest was just that song which IMO was kinda lame

That was quite better than your other 1 Keep up the good work PETEY

[Peter]

Okay , was , the song "lame" ?

[JeffM]

lame and stolen. be careful where you get your music, so that you don't infringe on copyright.

[Peter]

Stolen ? People use music on tracks like that all the time , it isn't infringeing on copyrights
because it isn't stolen or being made of any profit.


And as for the "lame" , that isn't even a proper word and I couldn't use a piece of music to suit everybody.

[Peter]

Okay sorry jeff you where right , i checked , i guess i should have checked before i opened my mouth , the new video (muted version) has replaced the other link.

[Ck_asdf]

besides the copyright issue, certain music fits with video clips. You wouldn't put really slow, relaxing classical music to a really intense car chase scene, right?
I can't really judge, since I don't know the song you used, but just know that sometimes certain music fits with the clip, and you shouldn't just put the music on there because you like the song.

Yep.

[BZFLAGDUDE]

hey nice job

[Lt-Kirby2007]

haha, i enver thought sumthin so simple (and dont take this the wrong way) but badly done, cud make me laugh so much. legendry mate. keep up the good work see u possibly in a few minutes lol

[Macrosoft]

i think the best part was when the tank was going down those inclines and it looked like it was stuck in the gap for a moment

[Peter]

Thanks My favriot bit is when it rolls into the aquerium background. At that point I was struggling for ideas


I have decided to start work on another cartoon, it is be better and longer than the last one..........I hope
