The 48x2 Animation Project (Online)

Steve K

"Are you an animator or always wanted to try animating. The 48 Hour Film Project has a competition specifically for you. You will have 4 days (from April 14 - 18, 2021) to create an animated short film. All types of animation are acceptable (including live action composited with animation).

2D and 3D
Clay-mation
Stop Motion
Machinima

Just like the regular 48HFP, you will receive your assignment (electronically): a genre, a character, a prop and a line of dialogue. Your team will have 4 days to create a 2 - 5 minute animated film.

Out of utmost caution during these difficult pandemic times, your team is limited to those people you live with and/or anyone you partner with remotely. Health and safety is paramount."

The regular (mostly live action) 48 Hour Film contest requires a 4 to 7 minute animation in two days, so this is more doable, 2-5 minute animation in four days.   Early entry is $70 thru 22Mar. 

Here is our entry from last year, "Circus Day":

I see this not so much as a chance to win, but just a way to goad myself into doing an animation ...
