WHY, WHY, WHY. would you do this, maybe because you think there is no other way. Well you are wrong. Comedy Centrals trip tank is laughing alright. This is what is happening. Studios across the board need content in order to maintain ratings, and build their franchises. Where can they find content and pay practically nothing? Oh right, lets ask all the artists who have created and animated their own original ideas to simply submit, Theyll do it believing this will put them at the front of the pack. I say brilliant tactics. Hundreds of artists will submit, giving the non creatives many cool ideas and we will pick a few and make you an offer. I can assure you being that the offer is not even mentioned, it will be a very small amount of option money, yes you will still need a day job and look what they will do written below if your animation gets picked. Therefore, it is legally no longer yours and guess who profits. Not you. FILESIf we are interested in your cartoon, we will make you an offer. If you accept, you will be required to deliver a render and all of your project files, so that we may re-create it at a later time if necessary. These include all character designs/rigs, background files, flash/animation files, sound files, and editing files (with all linked media). So you say, Stephen its is easy for you, you already have a name for yourself( side note, this is a message I receive a lot) And I respond yes, mainly because I never gave away my art like this and always made deals way before i was a pro or anyone knew who I was. So you say , Silver,What can I do. What you can do if you have the talent and ability to create your own animations is 1) Surround yourself with the friends you trust and start your own Youtube channel creating content you own outright, build your own audience, not theirs. people will come and your page will be the go to page that people are coming to. 2) do this independently for yourself still creating your own cartoons, get out their, show up at conventions, there are hundreds of them. People are always looking for something new and different every minute. but know you call the shots and make a fair deal. Stop hiding behind the computer screen. Make some noise for yourself. You can choose do have an attitude of non belief or you can pull up your sleeves and believe and get to work.--Silver triptanksubmit
