Carnegie Mellon University students are part of two online efforts to show student work in the field of animation.
The International Animated Film Society (ASIFA) through its Hollywood Animation Educators Forum is hosting a Class of 2020 Animation Virtual Showcase that will take place June 15-19. Co-organized by faculty from 30 schools the festival will represent 195 student works. Work by eight students will be showcased on the IAFS website and social media channels.
"There's a pretty great breadth of stylistic material among the students," said Johannes DeYoung, an assistant professor of art. "The form is not just one of entertainment but one of individual and philosophical expression."
