Well batkins this is a hard one to call. I love both of Ryans clips you posted links to,but almost every rotoscoper has probably downloaded them and been messing with those clips for months so that would be a unfair advantage that they would have.
Also with the clip we provided.since is a little difficult would show off real skill for anyone that completes it..
But I guess we should have the forums deside..
So should we do the Obi Vs Anakin Practice clip,or the Ryan Vs Brandon clip,you guys vote now.

I say Obi vs Ani as well. I doubt a lot people have it plus it's shorter so we won't have to spend a week trying to get done.

Brian here (a.k.a. krnbanguboi)...
Just a question do you expect us to roto that long of a clip? Then expect the competition to last as long ast 1-3 months.

Welcome to the Forums It`s only 14 seconds? You really think it wall take you that long I did a 8 second clip last week Roto and sound and it only took me 2 to 3 days.

What I think is really stupid about the clip is that a section of it in slow motion. Which does nothing to judge the rotoscoping, just adds more fustrating time of rotoscoping.

Rotoscoping is not easy and thats a fact, I don't keyframe that much in After Effects so I can track the saber correctly and make sure the sabers turn out alright.
There was a 11 second clip at TFN rotoscoping contest and the winner took at least a month to finish the clip. Maybe this happens with everybody or not, but I'd also have to agree with the slow motion part.
Oh yeah, is sound effects optional?
