ROA Update

What a success. The team really pulled together with Phil's Branding and character, Sarah running Dan G around and me spending money which I shouldn't have been we all came together and managed to get the exhibition up in time for the 4th June. Got a lot of interest as well. I felt I was being pretty demanding on the front line of getting people inside our room by literally stopping every person with a green pass walking by and asking them if they had seen the showreel yet but I had to let people know we were there. Well done Tom for thinking up the Sandwich board even though it really didn't sound like a good idea straight out.... it really did work as it caught peoples eye. Animators would do almost anything to get noticed :p I suppose but yeah it worked so I'm very happy the guys chose to chase it up and put it together. I know everyone played there part and some opportunities may come up due to it ... possibly from the guy from Last man standing which Phil and I met, first in the libary and then second time I grabbed him when he walked past to tell him about animation...
All in all... the show was really well put together, even if it seemed a little last minute due to broadcasters and we didn't really have a layout as such to follow as Dan was busy with the showreel - which really looked fab mind you... the guys did well on that. Grigsby did well, the team did well - Dalli and Jared were both around when we needed which was cool and Mike cheers for the preperation eg foam board funding and print credits.

CVA really came together and last night showed how the entire college came together as a whole to become RAVE ON AIR. Good show by all departments and I personally had a really good time. Elaine ... oh dear... few too many ....but hey it was worth it!
