At the start of the new term Edinburgh College of Art’s third year students were asked to design a logo and animated banner for the conference, the best of which would be used here on the website. The students all worked really hard on the project coming up with a really fantastic range of ideas. It was really tough choosing the final shortlist and eventually the winner, which you can see above.
The animation was designed and created by Sarah Keeling, a Cheshire native who has been in Edinburgh attending ECA for the last couple of years. While she mainly works in traditional “handmade” animation, she has been developing a variety of techniques over her last few projects, which can be seen here: www.sarahkeeling.com
The Society for Animation Studies would like to congratulate Sarah on her successful design and thank all the staff and students in the animation department at ECA for all their hard work.
