Gender Wars 2009 Balloon Animal Palooza

Balloon Animal Palooza
Start date: August 8th
End date: August 12th

Here we are. Already opening the fourth battle of the second anual Gender Wars. The baloon Animal Palooza will see contestants furiously twisting and shaping balloons to out do their oponent. Contestants may post their entries here, but remember, all comments and discussion are to be done in the discussion thread. (I will be posting it later tonight when I have time)

Let's get a quick run down how how this will work. It's pretty simple. Submissions must be filmed o we know you are the one making the balloon animals. A count of balloons must be given, and an explanation of what your animal is must be given. The entry must be an animal, but may be a fictional animal.

Entries will be marked in categories such as clarity. Does it look likewhat you say it is? How well are the balloons used? Sometimes simpler is better, we don't want to see something overly complex, or for that matter trying to stretch too few balloons too far. How well do you handles the balloons? And finally, the originality. Snakes, not too original. Be creative!


Subject clarity: /10
Effective Use of Balloons: /15
Technique: /5
Originality: /15

Good luck everyone!
