alright, I'm having a bit of trouble with my current project. see, I'm a cartoonist, an animator, not a live action director. I can't act[or even really talk] in front of a camera, and I can't seem to find any suitable public domain footage, so if anyone needs a little job to help gain some...

hey, a reply. lol. I'm not very good at asking people to shoot something for me, but luckly, I seemed to have found a late 50s instructional video about helping others in the public domain that'll work. I would totally wait to get something more specific if this deadline wasn't creeping so...

I don't post a lot here, mainly because I'm more of a cartoonist...but I have a question regarding the use of stock footage. and in this case [and like the title of this little post suggests]..it's any stock footage with any sort of charity event. anything that represents charity at all. and...

like others, I also have a facebook page for my work. [just throwing it out there...] http://www.facebook.com/jaredkowis#!/pages/Kowis-Animation/101883519860419

hey, that was indeed very great! I'm an animator myself, although after six years, I'm just now getting into the traditional method of animating on paper [tablet and computer can't measure up]. this inspires me. fantastic job.

thanks. again, I know there's still [as always] so much more room for improvement. but I'm ready to just work on new material. I'm just relieved I got to go back and take out those crappy shots.

well, here's the re-cut. I still think the ending is a bit rushed, but for a short, I think it's at least better than the first cut...much, much better. now I can finally move on to something else... www.vimeo.com/kowisanimation/lightsoftheunknown

you know, it was actually a bit longer before the "reality" was turned off. there was a whole "inbetween reality" claymation sequence that I cut for obvious reasons.

you know, I don't think I've ever seen Monty Python....but thanks for watching, guys. I know I need quite a bit of improvement, but hey, I'm progressing.

hey, you've gotta use what you have...and man, animating with ms paint is a number one time consumer in my book...thanks for reading, by the way. I'm pretty modest, was surprised someone even asked me to do one of these things.

yeah, strangely, that doesn't put me at ease. I keep thinking that something will go wrong and they'll get on me. it takes a lot to assure me it's okay in these cases.

you know, I think I may just animate my own. I feel a bit lazy just looking at other self made leaders...I want a go at it myself.

ah, thanks. I think I found one, though. just need to verify that it's definitely usable...

I think I found one. http://www.archive.org/details/FilmLeader I never used this site before, but it seems to be in the public domain..I'm rather paranoid about this sort of thing.

just the usual windows vista and internet explorer.

haha, yeah, that's the problem. neither of those [or anything close to it] are even listed.

thanks so much, everyone. sonnyboo, I can't seem to download that clip without quicktime pro. if I'm free to use it, that's exactly what I need.

here's another little question. it's a bit well, dumb, but if I were to use something like this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OvtSMtg6_I&feature=related could I use something like that without facing possible problems? I highly doubt anyone can seriously copyright a film leader like that...

that was simple. lol. thank you.

hey, this is probably asked a lot, but I couldn't find anything during my search. I just want to use an old film countdown in the opening of one of my shorts. the main character is watching an old black and white film in a theater, I think it's fitting to include the classic countdown. but...
