So it was down to the wire and during the last half hour, I tried to submit my project to the 11 second club. There was something wrong with the encoding so I checked my file again. Then I renamed it and rerendered it as a mpeg-4 file. Then when I submitted it again to the website (keep in mind there was only about 15 minutes left til the competition was over), after 5 minutes of waiting, my file was rejected again due to it's file size. So I compressed it and re-rendered with 5 minutes left. Filled out that stupid form once again and resubmitted. It was still uploading as the time expired. The end result: 80 hours of focus and dedication for an 11-second animation ended up NOT being up for submission. FUCK (pardon my French)
After I threw a couple tantrums, swore quite a bit, spent Halloween bitter as hell, and went home, I thought about how ridiculous it was that I spent sleepless nights only to have my animation not submitted. Not only that, it wasn't even MAYA that gave me this problem.
Now that I calmed down a little, I present to you the animation that never was...
