The brief says animation is an option, but looks like Proko does not allow uploads of video files in threads, and even gifs have to be under 1MB. How to submit an animation in that case? Link to youtube/vimeo?
3mo
Yeah in that scenario you'd want to provide a link to the animation and maybe some screenshots from the video. @Katey Jensma can you confirm this would be the best thing do?

For animation, I assume sound is required?
Should the comic or storyboard show the entire story or only a scene?
Awesome! in the comic book, is there a max limit for pages? I don't know if the idea I have is considered small haha
Do we need to do a front and back cover spread or is just a front cover fine?
Also is it cheating if we illustrate our favorite graphic novel?

I wouldn't consider it cheating, but I would still avoid it. The point is come up with your own visuals for this challenge and using a graphic novel could take you away from more of the creative aspect of this challenge. However, she is judging it based on composition, traditional feel, and the use of a limited color palette so keep that in mind if you do go with a graphic novel.
Hi, I have a question about the type of book, is this challenge only about children’s books ?
Hey Bryce, Are you able to view videos on vimeo.com? If not, you might want to try using a vpn. It's most likely because it's blocked for you.

Nice! My favorite out of the bunch are the lollipop and plastic ball. You did a great job capturing the translucency of each of those materials.
Small update** We reviewed the video file and it looks like the render for it was corrupted and ended at the 5min mark. We've reached out to Antonio and are waiting for him to re-render the footage for the first lesson. As soon as we have that we'll replace the video. I'm sorry for the delay in getting this first lesson fixed.

I think this first video is incomplete, it cuts off at 5:11 for me

@Kevin Fernandez @sandclock94 we just noticed this. The video got cut off during the upload and we're fixing it right away! Sorry for the error.

When will the first lesson be put up? It was not clear that the course would not be available right away after purchase.
