Animate a Letter Collab!

[Alcaknight]

The title pretty much explains it. Animate a letter doing whatever.

Specs

24 Frames per Second
Dimensions- 500x200 pixels
Background- White
Pick a couple of letters and animate them.
No actual background, just a white space.

I will put a big letter in the upper left corner, so the the audience knows what letter is being animated.
Have your username in the left lower corner of the document.
Remember: This doesn't have to be fancy, after all, it is just letters. 

Don't forget to name any of your symbols. Name them something like letter_alcaknight. Substitute alcaknight for your username or something to that effect.

DUE DATE: Will be decided when all parts are being worked on or when a few are left. Sometime hopefully around the beginning of September.

Example of what your part should look like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLWP0LE_uZI

ACTIONSCRIPT 2.0, by the way. You can easily convert it over if you already started it in Actionscript 3.0 unless you have code in your animation.
Quoted from Trottimus
"just go to the properties window and choose "edit" next to profile and change it from AS3 to AS2 in the drop down box"

Oc and Tophatwonder may be collaborating to make the Menu and Preloader.

[Alcaknight]

I would also like somebody to do the Main Menu, which is just a play button and a button going to the credits. If you somebody also wants to make a preloader, then go right ahead. 

[Tophatwonder]

ill take I, so what do they have to do? do they talk or something? similar to the Circle n Square sort of thing?
and i can also do the main menu if you like. 

Edit: also would you also put in your name on one of the corners, to kinda show who did what? as well as does the font matter?

[Alcaknight]

Well, you actually take the letter. Draw the letter with the brush/whatever tool you use, and animate it bouncing around or interacting with others of the same letters.

I will take care of the Big letter in the corner showing what letter it is. Just put your username in the lower left corner.

Sure, if you would like to make the menu, it would be a big help. Maybe have a big title saying ABC'z Collaboration.

[Tophatwonder]

alright i will get right on it. 

Edit: OH! due date, when do you think?

[Alcaknight]

Coolio. We will also put a link to Biteycastle on there too.

[Alcaknight]

Here is my animation so far. It looks like crap on youtube, but this is the main gyst of it. It looks much better in .swf form.

Remember, you can have 1-3 letters, unless people don't join, then you can have more.

[Trottimus]

Done. 

[Trottimus]

I haven't done a collab before. Do we send you the .fla?

Also, what actionscript version do you want?

Thanks!

[Alcaknight]

Actionscript 3.0 

And yes, when you are done, upload the .fla somewhere and send me the link. I won't be able to retrieve it until around the 20th of August, though, so you can wait until then to send it to me, if you want.
