October animated gif challenge – day 1

Oh the lovely Lucas North. It’s difficult to believe he’s a spy and not a model.

For the month of October, I’ve decided to make one new animated gif each day. Yes, that’s right, 31 animated gifs in a row! And you’re going to help me pick the scenes. The guidelines are simple:

1. Please be specific … if you can describe the exact scene or timing of the scene you want, that would be very helpful. Otherwise, I’ll make a best guess. Another option is to post a link to a screencap from the galleries on RichardArmitageNet.Com.  At the very least, you will  need to tell me which program and episode.  I haven’t memorized all of Richard Armitage’s shows, LOL!  If the scene is from one of my fanvideos, that’s fine too.

2. Suggest some text. The gif will look better if it doesn’t abruptly end and start again so a little bit of text will break it up nicely.

3. Of course you are free to use the animation if you so choose, but it’s not necessary. 🙂 This is just for fun and your input will be helpful.

The first animated gif was made at the request of beengizzied.  She posted a comment on my last fan video which said, “The best bit for me in this video is two seconds from 1.02 to 1.04 where he pirouettes in slow mo with his gun. I deeply crave that as a gif to use as my avi.”

As a result, I made the following:

I added the muzzle flash but otherwise the scene is directly from Spooks 8.7.

Hope you enjoy our little game!  Feel free to send your request via the comment box or through the Contact bccmee form.  First-come first-served.  Remember, I have all of Richard Armitage’s works on DVD so any character should be possible.  Speaking of DVDs, if you are ordering anything through Amazon US or UK, whether it is Richard Armitage-related or not, a percentage of your purchase will be donated to charity if you order through the links on RichardArmitageNet.Com.

By the way, I would’ve announced this challenge in advance, but I just got the idea last night!  😀
