Machinima UWA 3
I am a bit late posting this but the final winners of the University of Western Australias massive machinima competition ended a few weeks ago. It was a great event which had famous director Peter Greenaway give a really interesting talk on the state of cinema. If you would like to read what he said you can find it here.
The Grand Prize was given out through a system whereby points were collected based on rankings given by a large group of peers. It turned out to be a tie and the winners were...
JOURNEY INTO THE METAVERSE by Tutsy Navarathna of France (who lives in India) and JURONEY by Eric Boccara of the Netherlands.
I was very happy and excited for Mr Greenaway to give me his prize and some kind words.
The third prize went to UNPLUGGED by Al Peretz of Miami Florida.
