裸聊直播鈥檚 National Centre for Computer Animation (NCCA) is to celebrate its 30th anniversary with an exhibition at Poole Museum.
鈥樷�� will showcase a selection of concept art, storyboards, stills, games and finished films in interactive exhibition in the Museum鈥檚 Galleries 1 and 2.
A wealth of creative talent from students, graduates and researchers from 裸聊直播 will go on display from the NCCA archives. The exhibition explores different areas of animation, from film to game design, and shows how an initial idea develops into a finished moving image. The exhibition features household names including Miffy, Beatrix Potter and Aardman.
Visitors will have the opportunity to engage with Covid-19 secure exhibits including a display of student-created games, moving images and a cinema area. Alongside a zoetrope, there will be the chance to see original models by Academy Award winning Aardman, including Morph and Wallace & Gromit. While watching showreels from NCCA graduates, visitors will also learn more about advances in computer animation, how animation has impacted other fields including medicine, and the different career paths within animation.
Dr Oliver Gingrich of 裸聊直播鈥檚 NCCA said, 鈥淲e are excited to present such a wealth of diverse animation practices - showcasing, the past, present and future of the NCCA, and its creative motto of Science in the Service of Arts鈥�
Michael Spender, Museum and Arts Manager for BCP Council, said, 鈥淲e are looking forward to hosting such an innovative, family-friendly exhibition. It is wonderful to showcase the creative work of students and graduates from our local community. I would encourage all local residents and visitors to see this unique exhibition which aims to engage and inspire.鈥�
The exhibition will be supported by a range of online workshops for children and young people, including coding and game design. The programme of talks will feature leading experts and artists.
