I have always had a dream of making a real animated film and anim8or has provided me with that
opportunity.I didn't really consider what i might do beyond making the film though.
i tried to make 10, 1 min episodes sort of comedy with figures, speech and narration.
Turned out due to lack of ability only good enough for you tube,loads of work done 80%
The project slowed down at the audio stage, having to do voices myself. with poor equipment.
but was slowly and surely getting there.
Then lost hd with ALL edited episodes,vocals,sound effects gone which i had organised with 'lumiere''
that was a tough time.
i still have the original video clips, models etc but cant face going back to it.Quality wise i think i have moved on.
I have made a new 3 minute short that needs a licenced music piece[i have a piece of music but haven't got to grips with how to obtain a license yet] to accompany it before i can release it,
I'm hoping to submit it somewhere in some professional way. That doesn't mean i expect to get any money for it though.
quite the reverse i'm thinking at present.
There is a complicated route for submission to the bbc. whereby, if they like it, i would have to make
a beta tape copy[not sure what that is] at my own expense and i would hand over all rights to the film for 5 years.
If i elect to go that way i cant pre broadcast.
i haven't discovered any easier avenue as yet.
so in answer to your question .........i am a would be animator.
