On Wednesday the 2nd of October 2013, the Animation crew took some well-needed time out and decided to go on an adventure to Bradford's National Media Museum! Although it was indeed a fun trip, I can safely say that it was rather educational too. Not only did we visit for the Media Museum alone, we also had the opportunity to visit the "Moving Stories" exhibition - which was aimed at young children, but who said animators had to grow up?
We had an immense amount of fun and took plenty of photographs - myself being the David Bailey of the group as always! We learned lots of interesting techniques revolving around animation, played some good old retro arcade games and learned about the history of animation, television and video games.
An exciting moment for me was seeing the original cel paintings on acetate from the creator of Tom & Jerry! With cel, being my favoured style of animation despite the hard work and lengthy process, it was most definitely a worthwhile experience!
(Obviously none of the images of work above belongs to me and belongs solely to the artists who created them.)
