Hi, everyone. You may remember earlier this year, when the 1st Animation Source Choice Awards was held. Well, it's time to start getting ready for the 2nd ASCA's, and this year I'm looking for YOUR help!

The way the Animation Source Choice Awards works is like this. Each year, several animated movies are released in theaters around the world. I count them up, and decide which films are eligible for which categories in the awards; the categories are set up like the Academy Awards, so there are, for exmaple, Best Picture and Best Animation. (22 in total.)

For the first half of January, YOU, the members of Animation Source, will narrow the list down to the actual nominees, and during the last half of January, YOU will get to decide who the winners are in each category. 

But I cannot run this alone. I did last year and, believe me, it was a LOT of work. So I'm asking for as much help as I can get. Currently, I am looking for people to help out with two positions: counting votes and making graphics. To help count votes, all you need to do is receive PMs from members as they tell you what nominees they are voting for. You tally up the votes and report to me after the end of each voting period. You will even be able to still vote on your own, but remember, NO cheating on counting up other people's votes.

The second position is making graphics. There's a template I'm using this year which will be used for all the nominees' pictures. In otherwords, when the nominees for each category are decided (not the winners, the nominees), then a graphic must be made in order to show off each category's nominees. An example is below.

If you want to help out with graphics, I will provide the template for you to use. I'm particularly looking for people who have some experience with graphic design, but my standards aren't too high so you can still apply anyway.

I need between 2 and 5 helpers. You will be mentioned in future news, and on the official ASCA section of the AS site. To apply, simply send me a PM stating your username, your age, your availability plans for the month of January, and why you think you should get the job. I look forward to seeing your applications, and remember, perks!
