Contest: ENTER TV&Media Avatar Contest: How Do They Do It?

[Captain pl1ngpl0ng]

It's something quite hypnotic about watching industrial manufacturing....

you may enter two (2) avatars that depict any part of a production line, 200x200 pixel and safe for work.
my first entry... im not even sure what kind of gloves being produced here,
but i'll guess dishwashing gloves. (the soapy looking liquid are probably the reason why i can only think of that kind of gloves)

1. dishwashing gloves

and then....
2. stuffing fortune cookies with fortunes

entries will close on sunday, or later...

It's a cool idea but I don't see how it connects to TV & Media. This seems like a topic for Misc. There aren't many tv shows or movies that depict a manufacturing process.

 

[Captain pl1ngpl0ng]

yeah...., ditch this one and i will come up with something else , no problem

And I just had a couple of great ideas, too.

Laverne & Shirley

- and -

The Incredible Hulk

 

[Kai "the spy"]

I'd have a second entry, as well.

Edward Scissorhands

I could also think of a couple more. Just mining the classic Disney and Looney Tunes animated shorts should deliver some promising results.

Edit: I now have ten alternatives with even more ideas. There certainly are enough examples of manufacturing in TV and Film to sustain an avatar contest. And the theme is fitting for the upcoming MayDay.

 

[Captain pl1ngpl0ng]

yeah we'll keep this one, let it roll!!

 

[Kai "the spy"]

Btw, @Captain pl1ngpl0ng , I don't quite recognize from what movies and/or TV shows your own entries are from. They look cool, so I'd really like to know.

 

[Captain pl1ngpl0ng]

they are from the tv show "how do they do it"... i think...
they been lurking in my harddrive.

[Kai "the spy"]

Documentaries? Well, if you allow those, there is absolutely no shortage of material for entries.

 

[Captain pl1ngpl0ng]

yes, i didnt think documentaries was excluded from this? is it usually?
and i think my entries are from "how it's made" and not from the show i first thought

 

[Kai "the spy"]

Well, it's your contest, so you decide what is in- or excluded. And to be honest, I don't think we usually adress documentaries in these contests. With many contest themes, documentaries aren't even an option anyway.

There you go! If that's a TV show, then it counts.

 

[Captain pl1ngpl0ng]

lets also alow documetaries this time then, the entries so far that are non-docu's are harder to find so they obviously will get bonus points (which you cant use for anything)

Duff Brewery, The Simpsons

Battle droid factory, Star Wars: Attack of the Clones

I won't be participating this week, but three that come to mind in case someone else is stumped for ideas:

• the opening credits to WIlly Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
• the famous bit from I Love Lucy where Lucy and Ethel try to keep up with the conveyor belt at the candy factory
• whatever the heck all those workers are doing with the giant clock hands in Metropolis

 

[cardinal biggles]

@auntiehill I'm seeing an error graphic from imgur instead of your entry.

 

[auntiehill]

Eh. Wasn't working out so I deleted the whole thing.
