Hiya,

We badly need someone to animate a snowball flying into the camera (and exploding in a snow-like manner) - it doesn't have to be very high res, but does need to be on a transparent background. This is paid work, if you know who I work for, you know who it's for

Email me if you can (and would like!) to do this please: richard.davey@aardman.com

Cheers,

Rich

Hmm... I SHOULD be able to do this. When do you need this done by? I'm fairly certain its within my abilities, I just don't know quite how long it'll take with my school/work/personal-project schedule... Is there a set deadline, and if so, when is it?

If the good lord had intended us to go outside or have a social life, he wouldn't have invented the internet.

We need this quite quickly (within the next 10 days).

And yes, a transparent background (i.e. alpha channelled), not black. The snowball would be snow textured (so mostly white I guess!)

Aaaarrrrgggg. Why must you need this in 10 days? I'm doing an animation project for school right now. If your due date was in three/four weeks, I would totally do this. School keeps me so busy

I usually like to know the money before I accept any work

Maybe I should drop you a line to enquire anyway. I have done plenty of pro work within fairly short time frames, but I'm half doing some other work right now, and I've had a lot of little things pop up recently, and I don't like to commit to something unless I know I can do it in time

"I usually like to know the money before I accept any work"

I usually like to know a timescale before I agree to a budget.

Everyone else: Please email me (details in the first post), I won't accept anything based on a post in this forum, if you're serious about this you can spend 30 seconds contacting me.

Cheers,

Rich

I gave the time it was needed by, I didn't say how long it would take you to create, because that's something only you would know If you said "this will take 2 weeks and therefore cost XXX" I'd be able to make a call on it. If you said "this will take 2 days and cost XXX" that's a whole different situation.
