Do you get this? Is it funny?

So this one is called Death Star Jumps - do you get it?
I know in the US they are called jumping jacks so I'm not sure if this will translate globally?
I also don't know if I should have done his arms above his head rather than just out to the side?
What's everyones take on what a star jump is?
Does this need work - should I sub as is?
Would love some feedback :)

Yep. This US citizen didn't get the joke. It's a neat concept to keep playing with though :3

How about death of a star?
you could have the start slowy transforming into the death start.

I think to make it more obvious the hands need to be raised higher like in reality when someone does star jumps.

I didn't get it without the title either

CazKing on Jul 07 '11 at 8:53am

How about death of a star?
you could start with a regular looking Sun slowy transforming into the death star.

i like that idea Nestor!

take it, it's all yours.

CazKing on Jul 08 '11 at 10:07pm

no way - if I do it we'll call it a collab - it's your idea - I'd be happy to do it together?

Doesn't look like the death star is jumping at all. (no knee bend)
Just looks like he puts his arms up a few times and then falls over.
Also, Ive never heard the term "star jump" in my life.
Also, even if I could tell it was doing star jumps, i still dont really get it. Concept seems weak, imho.

CazKing on Jul 10 '11 at 8:16am

@Nestor - yeah I'll be in touch :)

@duracell - geez tell me what you really think! nah - just kidding.
Thanks for the comments - everyone in australia refers to them as star jumps, americans call them jumping jacks. The joke is that it's the death star doing star jumps - thats why I called it "death star jumps" but of course if you dont call them star jumps you wouldnt get the joke.

I don't think anyones artistic idea should be called "weak" - Imho - that was a bit harsh. Obviously the term "Star Jump" is not global. Work on the collab though, seems like a good idea to work on. =)

Caz is a big girl, I'm sure she can handle it.
