In this particular year the students observed that realtim e and open source animation technologies are increasingly being used in ar t departments for pre-visualisation as well as for production in TV and we b series, games and cinematics. \n\nAlso, 2D graphic effects such that can be generated using plug-ins like 'Grease Pencil' are being seen more ofte n in productions. Tasked with developing an idea for a short animation to be produced in the open source animation software 'Blender', the students developed a range of story ideas that were pitched to an industry panel (w hich selected 'Coffee Brake'). \n\nThe students then had just 8 weeks to d esign, model, rig, animate, surface, add effects, light and composite this lively and engaging short film.\n\nRegistration Category: Enhanced Access , Full Access, Full Access Supporter\n\nLanguage Format: English Language URL:https://asia.siggraph.org/2024/program/?id=caf_269&sess=sess168 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
