Nice Filmfestival Project June 2010- Web and video prototypes

admin — Thu, 12 Aug 2010 15:54:45 +0000

This spring talented students from 2. semester Film & Animation class developed web og video trailer prototypes for Odense International Filmfestival (OFF – See www.filmfestival.dk ). Along with analysis of target groups and communication related issues.

Birgitte Weinberger, the nice lady at the picture and managing director for OFF, gave the Film & animation students good introductions and feedback to the students work during the semester.
MMD Odense is very happy about the cooperation with OFF, that has provided the students with a realistic case environment. Further more the OFF project gave the students very good production experience using software tools like Maya, Matchmover, Adobe Premiere, After Effects and Adobe Flash.

Escape Studios

admin — Sat, 27 Mar 2010 18:41:51 +0000

Vi har i London besøgt Escape Studios.

Vi fik set et professionelt kursus-sted, som dels leverer unge talenter til f.eks MPC og andre produktionssteder i UK og dels leverer hardware og software til firmaerne også.

De studerende kan komme ind i deres job-agency og på den måde få et job i UK.

En 12 ugers uddannelse på stedet koster godt. 8000 GBP, men så er man også så godt som sikret et job i branchen.

moving-picture

admin — Sat, 27 Mar 2010 18:35:40 +0000

Så har vi været på besøg hos:

http://www.moving-picture.com/

Det var en stor succes. De arbejder dels med show-reels og dels med film-reels. De har 600 ansatte i London og kontorer i LA (Show reel stedet) og Vancouver (Film stedet nu)
Vores studerende var begejstrede.

MPC arbejder dels med Maya og dels med Adobe pakken og endelig andre pakker herunder Nuke.
De fortalte at de nu vil skifte helt til Nuke, som main applikation sammen med Maya.
Derudover har de en R&D afdeling, som laver plugins til Maya.

Deres ansatte er studerende som vores, som kommer fra hele verdenen. Hende vi talte med kom fra Brasilien.

De studerende fik også tips til hvordan de kan ansøge om at arbejde som “runner” på 4.sem. Altså en person som laver te, kaffe, kopierer etc. og så får chancen til at vise sit værd, når projekterne har tidsproblemer. Masser af ansatte komme ind på den måde.
Hvad de studerende havde lavet tidligere og hvilke papirer de har var ikke så vigtigt, men de skal have en fed show-reel (video), som klart viser hvad de vil. Den skal være kort og præcis. Det kan godt være få sekunder, men til gengæld skal man klart kunne se potentialet.
Vi fik visitkort med hjem fra firmaet

2 semester F&A is in London for the studytour

admin — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 17:11:08 +0000

Our studytour for London is up and running.

Today we visited MPC – http://www.moving-picture.com/

We saw all the new show-reels they are creating. Great stuff.

They use Maya like we do and also AE. We got a lot of tips of how to become “runner” and apply in the company. I think that all students and teachers were very happy.
