Welcome to the Group Outreach Initiative's 3nd animation jam event!! Join this jam to have fun and animate something other than Jeanette for a change! (Unless you like Jeanette and want to use her rig)  This event is hosted by students in the Algonquin Animation program, but is open to LITERALLY ANYONE!!! Tell your friends!

Contact @puffertron on discord for any questions!

THE THEME IS "SERPENTINE"

Participants will create a short clip of animation within 12 hours. You may participate as a team, or solo! All animation submissions will be judged by other participants on the following criteria:

• Theme Inclusion
• Squash and Stretch
• Solid Drawing and Appeal
• Presentation and Polish
• Fluidity and Gesture
• Fun and Style
• Overall Animation

Animation does NOT need to be polished/finished!! A fluid rough will probably do better than a coloured but unrefined piece.

Submit your finished animations in .MP4 or .MOV format, at standard hd resolution(1920x1080)

Rules:

• Animation may be done in any medium or style, in any software (or even on paper/stop motion). 
• All artwork in a submission must be created during the challenge hours.
• No use of past artwork is allowed.
• No AI (duh). 
• Use of any non-copyrighted 2d or 3d rigs is allowed.
• Use of existing voice clips, music and sound effects is allowed.

Behold, the awesome prize (from last time, new trophy may differ):
