This year LGM 2013 will be held in Madrid on April 10-13. I would like to attend this event to meet Carlos (Genete) there and have a productive work during the days of LGM.
Attendance of LGM last year gave me a great impulse for Synfig and Morevna Project development. I believe meeting Carlos and working together during the days of LGM will give even more impressive results. Besides all that I also plan to give a talk/workshop about character animation in Synfig.
So, if you like the idea of me participating in LGM event, then your support in funding my travel is much appreciated.
I might sound like a spinning record right now but why don’t you include a video pitch for your campaign.Kinda like this one you made youtube.com/watch?v=AIyRbnD … 4g&index=6
Also on the the Also Find This Campaign On: you only include your twitter account why not include your site and youtube account like this indiegogo.com/projects/tesla … d/x/181218
A good idea would be include perks ranging form 5 second to 1 minute animations perk and also a perk to do skype sessions.
I appreciate your advices, but I have my own vision of the campaign and prefer spend more time on doing a real work instead of promotion of the “money-asking”. I believe that the cases such as mine is not a “squeezing money out”, it doesn’t require additional “videos of my talking head” to motivate the people around here, because they are already very motivated. It’s opensource here, you know.
I don’t like the idea of doing the skype sessions, because they are much less effective than a “real-life” workshops and this is not comfortable for me.
EDIT: Instead of skype sessions I’d better prepare a video tutorials about the featured character animation technology. But such videos will be published soon or later, independently of campaign success, because I really love sharing my experience.
Have you taught about offering a live webinar for people who don’t live in Russia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_conferencing as a perk. Another cool perk would be a cameo in your next animation. Be one of the soldiers in the MorenvaProject if you donate 50 bucks or something.
The best is to write a blog post somewhere or article. (in the appropriate place, of course - otherwise it is considered as spam ^__^)
For example, the one here made a good impact - libregraphicsworld.org/blog/entr … 2013-ahead
Jonas rocks again! It’s awesome, looks like my trip becomes close to real!
(I’m especially proud, because I was happy to meet him personally during my visit in Sweden and since then I receive a lot of surprises from him).
Best gratitude to Jonas, from me and all Synfig community.
Just out of curiousity - do you have an alpha/beta version of your character animation tech that you’d consider releasing? My significant other and I are both actively working to try to learn vector design and animation. Synfig (+Inkscape) is really the only valid option for us right now. There don’t seem to be any good free animation studios that support skeleton/node animation - so we’re basically twiddling our thumbs and waiting for your release.
I was wondering if someone could build the latest version of synfig for windows download.tuxfamily.org/synfig/packages/binaries/
I think its pretty important. By the way could you release a version of synfig with that new technology you are making it would be nice to see a preview of it.Also the latest version of synfig doesn’t have the plugins built in download.tuxfamily.org/synfig/packages/binaries/
