3D animation contest offers a range of enrichment activities to participating
students |
With the objective to provide opportunity for the
younger generation to showcase their talent and develop their potential,
Cyberport and Hong Kong New Generation Cultural Association jointly organize the
Hong Kong Youth 3D Animation Competition 2012. Themed "My Neighbourhood",
this year's competition invites students to create 3D animation by drawing on
their surroundings, people and things in their neighbourhood.
Primary and secondary school students are expected to enjoy a range of
enrichment activities. The activities include gaining insights and
knowledge through a 3D software training workshop, sharing by industry
professional, and a seminar on "How to Make a Story Board" conducted by Mr.
Jeffrey Lau, a renowned local comic artist and illustrator. Winners will
also have the opportunity to go on a company visit, take up an internship, being
nominated to participate in international contest, as well as enjoy other
attractive prizes.
Apart from enrichment activities and prizes, support to contestants has also
been strengthened. Cyberport's Technology Centre will provide contestants
with 3D rendering services via the cloud platform so as to improve the overall
quality and efficiency of their work. While HKIVE, the competition
co-organizer, will also provide help desk services to contestants in September,
helping them to solve problems encountered during the production of the
animation.
The competition is split into three groups comprising primary school, and two
secondary school divisions with division 1 accepting submissions for one minute
animation, and division 2 accepting submissions for three minute animation.
Deadline of the application has been extended to 5 July. Interested
