Search For A Star Games Animation Winner 2020 : Chris Woods

21 May 202029 May 2020 Dan Dudley 0

Congratulations to Chris Woods from SAE Institute, our Games Animation winner of Search For A Star 2020!

Chris reached the finals after creating a great animation sequence for the project stage, impressing our Search For A Star Animation assessors and topping both the Creative and Technical scoreboard!

Chris discussed his technical skills, animation knowledge and ambitions for his future games animation career, in interview with Gary Edwards, Principal Animator at nDreams; Diana Donado, Head of Animation; Ian Shepherd, 3D Animator at TT Games.

Our team of expert Games Animation judges said that Chris has an excellent understanding of the animation process, producing well rounded work with a creative flair.

Our judges also said that Chris was really good in interview, showed great confidence and would be an excellent addition to a games studio when he graduates this year!

You can check out Chris’ Games Animation challenge project for SFASX below:

Congratulations once again to Chris, it’s an excellent achievement!
