I'm thinking of puzzle/platform style, but I also want the action element too. A bit exploring too.
Just for testing purpose, you could try to make a meeting between a spider and the main character
The colors should match the colors in these screenshots:

Aicebo, what can you do if you got a very basic cutscene?

I can always make a sample of something if you'd like; what exactly is the type of game you're making? What kind of colors and feel do you want it to have?

MC, get over it. Aicebo obviously knows more than you, and compared to what other people could have said, she was going easy on you in the locked topic.
Anyway, I know there are some download-able game programs that help you make sprites.

I'm not going to pay for anything. I'm making free games, therefor I don't want to buy anything.

What I believe is needed, is either the animation to run in-game or make a scene in some program and record that as a film. The last is easy, but takes a lot of space...

Harumph. After all that work... I'm pretty sure there aretwo types of cutscenes, the movie type and the normal type which uses the same graphics.

I think they are trying in game graphics cut scenes which do not need any specialised animators.

Do you realise what you're asking? If it's sprites then that shouldn't be too hard, but in other cases, you need professionals. And I'm guessing you lot won't really pay what a professional animator will demand for more than an hour's work. One of you needs to learn to animate. And for the love of god, DON'T USE FLASH! It's fine for bored teenagers but not for game projects! God. Bloody flash...

Hmm... Found someone who might be able to help you. They're called Onyum and they do 3D animations. The best part? They work for $16 per hour. And if anyone complains that that's too much then you're screwed because they are undercutting the whole market.

But here's their website details. http://www.Onyum.com
And for good measure, a page detailing several companies who might undertake a cutscene project http://www.ifreelance.com/find/provider … ba=2&sc=57

They asked about editors so I spoke up. The end.

Aicebo, if you are not a cut scene creator yourself, and just an editor, this
thread isn't quite for you. Thanks for the help anyways.

Yeah, you need to be experienced and have good programs to make good ones...
And she only wants me out of your little group because she's selfish and isn't fond of me. If she's the boss of your group then I'm sorry.

Swaffy, I don't think it works that way... I think you either do the cutscene directly through code or make it in the modeling program. Anim8or (Which I use), can make scenes. But scenes are not supported in the game, so that's a dead end...

I was just looking for a cut scene creator on Google, and can't find one.
Bummer.

You need an editor in order for the cutscenes to come out decent. You don't know anything about those kinds of things though, of course.
