If you're a pro storyboarder, your time is valuable and worth something...remember that! Glad to hear you're busy BTW. But for the hobbyist or beginner that loves Radiohead...go for it. Of course, if you're between jobs and are interested, then have at it too. It's a fine line with this kind of thing but it seemed like not a bad contest overall. Hoping to get a bit of exposure with the link exchange. ;) -K Debi, it’s better to be swamped with paying work than to do contests I think.

It looks very cool and as you guys said, it's great that storyboard artists are being recognized. I hope more pop up when I'm also a bit less swamped. Thanks for the heads up!

I totally agree. It shows some respect to the artists by only calling for storyboards at first. Complete animation is far too time consuming for a slight chance at a prize. That's where other contests can look like a scam. Hopefully it can start a new trend and get more storyboards seen too! Ben...I know how you feel. I might be inclined to try myself but I'm far too busy doing my 'work' boards to squeeze out another one! -K You’re very welcome Will.

Great link Karen and I would really loved to have a go at this one. Unfortunately the deadline is too close for me as I'm swamped with stuff to do. Thanks anyway - I'll certainly check in on Aniboom regularly from now on. :) Ouch!

I think this contest will really help to put Aniboom on the map as well. They're getting a ton of traffic from sites like CNN and MTV who are reporting on the contest. It would be nice if more sites like this had storyboarding (or animatic) contest instead of requiring a completed animation. Thank you for the links.
