glad some people are into this. I haven't worked out a specific idea yet to be completely honest. I know we all specialize in our own things, so figuring that out will be the biggest step.
let's try to keep it free or super cheap, just to make it easy on everyone. I'd like to figure out a concept this week so we can get rolling on this. Feel free to drop any cool examples of collabs here to inspire us.

Sounds like trying to get a project done for free! FOR FREE!!

Is there something we can do to help people through design?
Anyone have an idea yet?
I was thinking maybe a QBN short animation but they may be hard to collaborate. and wouldn't really do anything for anyone.
I am bumping this up because good things will not go to waste.

^ yes for free! I am actually a corporation trying to put together a piece for a client and need you lowly designers to help me get it done.
that or i'm all boned up for a better tomorrow.. take your pick

My posts to date on this thread have been of the negative variety. Allow me to perhaps qualify why this has been and attempt to build rather than destroy.
+ You got a heart kid I will give you that, but this place has tried and failed to collaborate together. Look at earlier posts for examples of these. I'm sure on the odd occasion its worked too. Hell we managed to put on a charity rock gig with peeps from here years ago.
+ My point is that I doubt from your response so far this will morph into something very real, unless you come up with a great idea that you will do regardless (preferably with people you know from the real world) then just use QBN as one of many streams to gather participants.
+ I would try and find something among your mates or network meets a common need or shares an interest. Why does it even have to be a digital piece? Hell go build an orphanage made of sock puppets or paint the grass at your local school purple. You will get faster satisfaction if you try and do something tangible and within your proximity of impact.
The alternative is you will get tired and demotivated bumping this thread till infinity.
Good luck with whatever you decide on.
- its worth a shot, if theres not enough interest i'll be moving on. i do these projects every new year or soifeltdave

"or i'm all boned up for a better tomorrow"
What does this mean?
- epigraph0
I think the books never pan out because people loose interest waiting for them. By the time it gets to you you have moved on to other stuff, and it sits around neglected.
A collab project that would allow everyone to work at once would prob pan out best.

How about just a crowd source it for $1000

Okay ya'll, I've got an idea. Sorry for the delay, last week was a rough one to come back to after the holiday.
I'm biased when I suggest this because I'm an animator, but I would love to do a visual essay.. a motion piece with a message. Knife party, but with less of an agenda.
Samples:
http://vimeo.com/channels/visual…We tap the great minds of QBN for this. We need typists and graphic designers, but also some new media folks who can handle After Effects and most likely a little bit of 3D. We need a writer to come up with a script, and we need people to do some research about whatever topic we decide on doing.
Something that popped in my head is a call to action, a PSA that asks people to chill the fuck out. This AZ shooting stuff, the political climate of 'us vs them'.. its fucked. It's broken. And frankly, people need to be shouted at and told to calm the fuck down before we all kill ourselves. A better tomorrow.. lets make one.
What say you, QBN? If we're not down for this, I'm cool with making a short film about the rise an fall of Brett Bash instead.
