Rotoball 2010: International Collaborative Animation Project
What is a Rotoball?
Rotoball is an international collaborative animation project. Each student animates 15 seconds of a ball entering a scene, transforming into something else, interacting with someone, and exiting the screen as a ball again.
Watch projects from previous years here.
This project is open for grades 3-12.
The project Website can be found here.
Updates for 2010:
1. Because we received so many interesting requests for variations on the project, one of the major rules changes this year is that the project does NOT have to be rotoscoped. It is the preferred form for this project, but we like variety too. The name, however will remain ‘Rotoball’. We like that better than “Animatiball”
Almost everything in this project is optional. How you handle it is up to you, and the greater variety the better. The ONLY requirements are:
15 Seconds long.
Ball enters from the left side of the screen.
The ball transforming in some way.
An interaction with the transformed object.
The ball returning to normal.
The ball leaving the right hand side screen.
