BA Animation & Interactive Media Screening

Just got home from watching a whole bunch of students' work. Students who just graduated from the Bachelor of Arts, Animation & Interactive Media Screening. I was pretty impressed with quite a few of the works but personally felt that alot of them were lacking the essence of animation or so to speak.

Quite a few of them were motion graphics oriented and they were pretty good. I did like a couple of hand drawn ones (albeit being largely rotoscoped). The 3D ones were rather disappointing, apart from one film called 'The Orb' which just focused on One character and this character was just a ball. Not much to see you say? Well....the animation and timing for that bouncing ball gave it a whole lot more character compared to the rest. Not to mention, it did win best 3D animation hands down.

That's that then... Just came from from the screening after a couple of beers and discussions with fellow animators regarding the films shown tonight... Just thought I'd put up my thoughts here koz this site needs more posts anyway...

Am personally looking forward to the AIM screening come Thursday. Basically koz AIM has gotten me where I am today and I feel very much attached to the place and the people there as I've learnt so much and gotten so far over the course of the last 2 years.
