Nate Mayer, recent Webster alum, is starting project: a Flash game with a story, levels, worlds, etc.

Tentative story idea is a “haunted” circus or a scary funhouse with evil clowns possibly set in a whole circus land. This isn’t set in stone.

Nate will be writing the script, designing the levels and programming. The help he’s asking for is with creating the artwork for the worlds and characters. The only caveat is that it needs to be vector artwork so Flash or Illustrator (without any fancy effects or blending) are the tools.

When the project is finished and published, he would happily share any profits, but there is no guarantee of anything.

Contact Nate via Facebook or email him at: bf_arod3@hotmail.com

Hey all!

Maria Ramirez would LOVE for some of our super, awesome, wonderful SIGGRAPHers to approach her in interest to help her redesign the Your Allure website.  Check it out now at www.your-allure.com.  She is looking to spice up the design as she moves to add a wordpress digital magazine.

I know so many of you rock at the photoshop/illustrator, so who wants to help?  The design would also be translated into merchandise and apparel.

This is an awesome opportunity and a great cross-club effort.  If you are interested, please contact Maria Ramirez @ yourallure@gmail.com or talk to me (Leah) at the next SIGGRAPH meeting.

Tsuss!

Leah
