Bucks Graduate reaches top ten in The Animation Talent Awards

Animation Talent Awards - now voting

Bucks graduate Monika Dzikowicz has reached the top ten entries in the online Animation Talent Awards - and now she needs your help! Back in May we blogged about the call-out for entries, encouraging all our students to compete. International contests like this are a great way for animation students and recent graduates to get noticed, and to showcase their talent. Even if you don't win, what you learn from entering the competition is an invaluable experience in itself.

Go to www.animationtalentaward.com to see the competing entries. Monika's entry is the second on the list (in the middle of the image above). Of course, we're a bit biased, but we think her entry is the best. Still, check out the competition, and decide for yourself. Voting begins on Monday September 16th.

If you'd like to see more of Monika's art and animation, check out this recent showcase of her work. You can also see her excellent design work for a short film we're making at Bucks, with a number of recent animation graduates, titled What's Wrong With The Global Development Organisation?, which is now almost finished.

Directed by Monika Dzikowicz

Don't forget, all the work you do here at Bucks is just a dress rehearsal for your future career. We want all our students to be able to compete on equal terms with the very best talent from around the world - and win.
