Pivot Points

Pivot Points is about giving you some extra satisfaction from animating. When you complete an assignment, you will be awarded with the corresponding amount of PP.
More PP equals bragging rights, so make sure you're at the top of the high score!
To submit an assignment, simply post your animation in this thread.

I am always open to suggestions, fire away!

_____________________________________


Rules
*Try not to use Pivot 3 Beta if you're submitting the .piv file
*It is not allowed to enter the same animation for more than one assignment; if you do, the assignment with the lowest PP reward is selected
*Old animations result are not allowed, nor continuations of old animations
*Talking about TSA is strictly prohibited; your post will be deleted/edited and you will receive a penalty of -100 PP
*It is generally not allowed to do the same assignment more than once, though there are a few exceptions
*However, you can overwrite an old assignment with a new one, if you feel the new version could earn you more PP
*Quality over quantity, I cannot stress this point enough
