MicroSmotion - The new Animation Widget!

aniBOOM — Wed, 29 Aug 2007 13:48:32 GMT

A brand new animation widget which allows you to animate yourself or anything else you wish with your webcam.

You can then embed it on your site or blog, export it to your mobile, or create your own original video greeting cards & send it to your friends and family! I must warn you ahead of time that these tools are addictive!

Idea

Killa Cham — Tue, 14 Dec 2004 05:52:10 GMT

I had an idea of developing animation in developing countries. I need some feedback on this though.

I wanted to help talented animators establish themselves independently, while at the same time be able to develop employment opportunities for people in developing countries, by taking advantage of labor advantage. In Kenya for instance it can cost $200,000 to hire 200 animators for one whole year.

In animation, the main thing that gives many big firms advantage is the labor intensiveness and cost of animation production incurred through labor costs.

Many talented animators have ideas, yet they can not effectively carry them out due to labor constraints. Many of their ideas never make it past their coworkers.

I believe that people’s oversight can be others advantage. I believe that if these animators can seek venture capital for projects; they can make a little money on the side, while getting a chance to explore ideas. They even may have the chance to become entrepreneurs and develop independent projects and companies.

The cool thing is they would be able to help establish employment opportunities in developing countries and produce projects at a fraction of the cost, thus it would be easy for simple employees to fund big projects.

Projects could include animated feature films, and animated series for consumption in international markets.

Give me some feedback please,

Thanks

Clive
