And now, here are the winning Flipnotes from last week's topic "Barbecues".
Well done to everyone who entered.
In this barbecue Topic winning entry, by EffoVex an excessive application of lighting fluid must surely end in disaster!
But this being Flipnote, see if you can guess what disaster that will be!
Setting the scene beautifully with expressive character inter-play, and a wonderfully protracted pour, the action plays cleverly with viewer expectation, before delivering its hysterical random punchline!
Reveling in the smoky deliciousness of a barbecue binge, from its first sizzling savory, to its last creamy desert, CookieEXP serves up every succulent mouthful in this bite-by-bite Topic winning animation.
Mmmmmmmy goodness, suddenly I’ve got such a craving for a burger!
A waiter’s energetic zeal contrasts hilariously with their table-side banter in this strongly posed, hamburger mini skit created by Wari.
Aw, poor customer, that’s a real appetite crusher!
A lover of traditional barbecue is in the throes of their perfect cookout, when all of a sudden, they receive a vegan request, in this brilliantly voice acted, comedy drama made by Dapprluigi.
When the baconing-up of a burger gets completely out of control, the meat sweats beckon, and enthusiasm wanes in this super-calorific, grease dripping Topic winner by Darealsoup.
This Weeks Topic - "Bubbles"
This week’s Topic would include bubbles of many different types.
For example: A liquid bubble, an air bubble, and a gum bubble. Or how about a speech bubble, a dream bubble, or even living in a bubble!
Your Topic entries could feature any kind of bubble in whichever way you choose.
Water bubbles can be particularly beautiful. Whether effervescing, or floating through the air, they reflect light from their liquid surfaces in so many different ways.
Top Tip: You might try changing your Flipnote paper color for a shiny liquid bubble effect.
Whatever you decide, why not start a bubbly Topic entry today!
We really love the way you're all so creative with these topics and look forward to seeing the Flipnotes you create for them.
Make sure to post your entries to the Weekly Topic channel Weekly Topic - Bubbles and the deadline for your entries is (12pm EST / 4pm GMT).
We would also encourage you to add a description to your Flipnotes. This is your opportunity to explain any points of interest and specific details that we could feature in the topic winner reviews.
And don't forget, if you want a cool thumbnail picture on your Flipnote, whichever frame you save the Flipnote on, that will become the thumbnail. So choose your favorite frame for this, or add in a cool title page at the end, and save on that.
Keep on Flipnoting and the best of luck with your entries.
