The PromptThis Sunday Sprint is focused on animation. Over an 8-hour period of deep focus, you will make an animated short.
Participants can join as individuals or teams. You will draw a random number corresponding to a year (10,000 BC, 1265, 2040, etc.) and will be challenged to develop a short pilot episode about someone's first day of a new job in that year.
