Jim Lee Explains DCUO Animation Contest in Video [DC Universe Online]

As we've reported, the DC Universe Online Animation Contest is currently under way on the game's Facebook page. The contest gives you the chance to animate shots in a DCUO cinematic trailer or animate character gestures for in-game emotes. If that sounds a bit overwhelming, Sony Online Entertainment just released a video that features comic book artist Jim Lee explaining the whole process.

"The cool thing about working with Mass Animation on this project is that we basically get to work with a lot of amateur animators out there. We actually supply you with a cinematic idea for a trailer to promote the DC Universe Online game. You can animate it with us!" Lee said, noting that the best submissions will be shown at E3 next year.

Watch the full video for details on how to download the Autodesk Maya animation software and submit your entry. "So this is my challenge to you: Come join us and you can be the next legendary animator!" Lee said.
