The 52 Week Project! - Happy Birthday to me :)

Posted by Rudy - January 7th, 2009


Hello there,

Today is my birthday, and I finally released my top-secret, 52 Weeks Project! The Fifty-Two Week Project is an idea I've had for a while to create. For a whole year, I will be animating an animation a week until my 18th Birthday. I am currently 17, and as a starting point -- I decided to submit on my birthday. This is going to be a challenge for me, especially for thinking of 52 ideas for a whole year, but I'm sure it'll pull together nicely.

I'll be submitting every Wednesday until my 18th Birthday, so once the new duedate hits, I'll have to have the animation finished on time by that day. This gives me a week to complete an animation. I'll usually start doing the idea on Thursday, Sketch it out in my notebook Friday, Move it into Flash on Saturday, Than finish it all up by Wednesday and submit. This is what I'll be doing for a whole year. I will try to keep the ideas and animations unique, and not repetitive -- Hopefully, I can be as original as possible. Wish me luck, and I hope you enjoy the challenge!

I'll try to update this post with all the submissions, as well as website, which will be up soon with a compilation of the submissions as well!

*Sorry for the downtime of my site, I'm working on it! It'll be up in the next 24/48 hours! As well as the 52 Week compilation page!

Enjoy!

I think I tried to do something like that myself like an animation a day just to hone my skills. Didn't work out so great, haha.

I said Happy Birthday in your last newspost, but I'll say it again Happy Birthday! I'll see if I can make a flash to you for your birthday, I'll PM it.

Yeah, I think this will be pretty interesting -- I remember Adam Phillips doing an animation a day for a whole month. I've been pondering on this idea for a while now, and decided to finally put it into effect -- Especially since I'll be finished by the time I'm 18 years old.

Thank you for the birthday greetings. I can't wait to see my flash you're making for me. I really appreciate it. If you want, submit it to Newgrounds, two other people already did. Haha. I'll five ya and favorite it ;3

Happy birthday!

Thank you ! :D

I hope you animate more than mouths in your next 51 animations though. ;) jkjk

ahah I will :D

!hap bir

$15 bucks says you miss a week before 10.
Prove me wrong, please :D

Okay, You better keep your word on that 15 bucks ;) I'll give you my address :P

Sounds like an awesome project man! Pretty ambitious but if you can keep yourself inspired enough to finish something every week for a year, fair play man!

good luck man, i hope you'll really do this! it'll be tough but i wish you good luck and (oh yes) happy birthday! :D

or you could do one huge project with huge action scenes and kickass frame by frame animation

Good Luck with your 52 weeks project and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

That's an awesome idea, wish I would have thought of that... Happy birthday anyway man!

happy birthday!

Merry Christmas, good sir!

It looks as if they are about to make out.
And they gets me a little excited,

Woudn't it be easier for you if you did a flash once every month? It would give you more time to make your flash, and you wouldn't have to worry about getting side tracked with other things.

I changed it to Rudy's Birthday Flash 09 lol.

oh yes right your birthday is today. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!. also whats with your bitey drawing on your header and pic huh?

Upcoming animation maybe? ;) I made it myselffff

That's a lot of work.

You could do it so you submit 1 compilation of 4 videos every month.
Each week you make one (with proof you did it that week perhaps, haha) and at the end of the month we get to see them all.

Otherwise you'll have 52 short little flashes, instead of 12 bigger, super flashes!!!

You see this is what I'm planning to do, complete them with 52 short little flashes, and than when the last one hits the web -- there is going to be one big giant emporium showcasing every single one :P

Kinda a cheap way to do it but oh well.

:D w00T!!!
:[ Birthday's over, but i'm still celebrating!!!
Happy birthday again!!!!

The "Edward Scissorhands" Song... GREATEST FUCKING THING IN THE WORLD!!!!
haha i downloaded it!!! you should make a second one!!!

Good luck with your yearly project, and your collabs rudy.
Looks like you've got a lot of shit on your hands, so,
i figured i'd wish you the best of luck, haha.
