[May 17th, 2021: The completed MAP is out! https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/531126408/] Last year, I hosted a Scratch Month MAP using the beautiful song "Cats In The Cradle." It got featured on May 18th, 2021. I was so excited to have a MAP celebrating this amazing website featured, and it more than made my day. However, no one truly knew that there was ANOTHER person hosting a Scratch Month MAP with the song "Happy," a MAP that turned out wonderfully (that I ended up participating in), a MAP that brought a whole new array of talented animators to my attention, some of which I even follow and continue to be inspired by today. This was @RainbowGeckos, a person who had the exact same idea as me, except they didn't get the recognition they deserved. So it was a great idea for us to continue the tradition of Scratch-celebrating MAPs, and we decided to co-host a special MAP for this year's Scratch Week. This year, we're going to do the song "Try Everything" from Zootopia by Shakira! Why is it special? Other than it being a MAP entirely dedicated to Scratch, it's special because every participant will be instructed to create a part outlining their journey through Scratch in art and/or animation. This will be about Scratchers, and THEIR experience on this fantastic website. This means that the finished parts will not have anything to do with the lyrics, but instead with the Scratcher themselves. The deadline will, obviously, be cut short because of how tight it is, but anyone will be allowed to enter and convey their experience in art and/or animation. This also means that there will be a one part maximum per person. Standard rules/common sense applies to this MAP. Nothing in your part is allowed to go against the Scratch community guidelines in any way, shape, or form. Any given part must convey the user's experience on Scratch. This will be made very clear to all participants. It is what we are looking for. A maximum of 2 sprites per part. No backdrop art/animating will be accepted. One last time, if you get a part, it'll be completely about YOU, and your journey on this website. The following studio is where all of the parts will be listed once taken: The final deadline will be May 15th, 2021. We hope you decide to join us in celebrating Scratch Week!
