<human>: I'm going to propose to my long-time girlfriend here shortly at PAX this year. While she isn't particularly a gamer, I wanted to do something special for our proposal and was looking to get the impossible done. I am looking for an animator to do a short 1-3 minute video about our life together up until this point and use it as a launch pad for my proposal.

 Are there are any animators/student animators who specialize in hand drawn animation (nothing too crazy, just simple line work with colors) and is willing to take the job? I would forever be in your debt. The deadline would be the end of August- I don't have much in way of payment, and I know I would be asking a lot, but if there is any way we could figure out a plan I would be ever grateful. I can take care of the music and audio (no dialogue), I'm not looking for anything fancy and I know this is a crunch, I do have a backup plan if it fails as well.

I know this would take a lot of hard work and I'm willing to find a way to make it work, it would mean the world to me- I want to make this the most special thing for her and for our memories.

If not, what is the best way to approach someone to animate a thing like this/where is a good place to contact animators? Thanks for the answers in advance!
