For the past three months my friend and I have been working on the most time consuming project we have ever worked on nearly non-stop. What started as an ambitious goal to create some fun animation for a party I have every year turned out to be something much better, although more time consuming than originally intended. We called it Animay Kombat with the premise that my close group of friends would be fighting each other Mortal Kombat style, but with a storyline. The story will eventually entail a corporate battle to be the top designer luggage manufacturer. I guess the only major difference between this animation and others is that we are painfully digitizing ourselves with photos and vectorizing each frame of our moves. We have taken somewhere in the vicinity of 3000 photos already and thats just to get us started.

So I give you ACT I of Animay Kombat. Its a 4MB download but we think its worth it. Please check it out and let me know what you think. ACT II will be following soon if we get a good response from this.

Pretty good Elijah ! I was wondering were you have been lately, great work, cant wait to see more, love the music, it gives a nice feel to the piece.

The use of red and white is also awesome, keep it up !

Nice work, that must have taken ages.

very nice, looks like much work

when the next part will be released?

We are shooting for early sept. for act II. Im working on the sprites right now which should hopefully be done by the end of the week. Then begins the animating and storyboarding.

It took a solid 3 months of two people working on average about 4 hours each a day to get act I finished. Although we have learned a tremendous amount in the process we hope to decrease that number significantly this time around. Then of course theres always the problem that we want to outdo ourselves so that may cancel out somewhere.
