This gorgeous 2d animated piece has been created by Karissa Laine for the 2D animation module. As you can see from the sample of her storyboards below, a lot of time went into ensuring the movement of the creatures was just right. You can see more of Karissa’s work here https://klaine.myportfolio.com/
This work was created for the 2D animation module run by Dr. Richard Hetherington. Thanks to Karissa for allowing us to feature her work.
Mate & Jones is a an animation by Alarik Jägerhorn, one of our second year Digital Media and Interaction Design students.

This intriguing animation was created by Jutta Kuismanen for our 2D animation module run by Dr. Richard Hetherington and Andrew McKelvey. The brief asks students to create a 1-2 minute animation showing the interaction between two characters. The model sheet below shows some of the development process that Jutta used to ensure her characters would work well together on screen.

Many thanks to Jutta for allowing us to feature her work.
Beth helps a participant try out her Virtual Reality project.
Here are some images of the recent year 4 poster presentation day, the student’s chance to showcase their projects. We had some guests from Shopify to judge the poster competition and present the prizes. They were particularly impressed with the range of projects produced, but finally settled on Manon’s “CultureMapper” app which aims to engage young people with cultural experiences. She followed a Design Thinking process and involved her users at each step to create an appealing prototype. We’ll be sharing some of the projects in more detail over the next few months.

Rachele Cavina, one of our final year BSc Digital Media students has come home with first prize in the final year category at the BCS Ada Lovelace Colloquium. The event happens in April every year and brings together female students of Computing from across the country. She used the event to showcase her honours project, which uses Augmented Reality and animation to visualise DNA heritage. You can see more of the project here – https://reci1996.wixsite.com/rachelecavina/copy-of-interactive-map
Rachele discusses her work with other delegates
Rachele was joined at at the event by Mari-Nikol and Elena, two of our year 3 students who also presented their work.
Thank you to Rachele for allowing us to share her work.
We’re pleased to be able to share the video celebrating the Blended Spaces project we have been working on with Farmingdale College in New York State. You can find out more about the project and exhibition here – https://blendedspaces.tumblr.com/
Dr. Tom Flint is currently making plans for next year’s joint project – this time the students from Farmingdale will be visiting us in Edinburgh in August. Watch this space to see what happens! If any current students want to be involved this year in Edinburgh and next year in New York please get in touch with Tom.
Mat is one of our year 4 Digital Media and Interaction Design students. This piece shows off his skills in integrating additional visual elements and effects into video.

This work was created for Visual Effects Storytelling, one of the year 4 modules on the Digital Media and Interaction Design course. The module is run by Dr. Richard Hetherington and Andrew McKelvey. Look out for more great work from our students soon.
Many thanks to Mat for allowing us to share his work.
Barna Imre, one of our year 3 Digital Media and Interaction Design students, describes his motion graphics projects as “kafkaesque nonsense”. The piece has a strong visual style and challenges viewers to look a little more deeply at his work to discover some of the cultural references within.

This Motion Graphic was created by Year 3 Digital Media Global Student Murray Paterson.
Murray says “The visual Inspiration behind Under the Weather was drawn from tiger aspect studio’s “Charlie and Lola”, where they create this really playful rough cut collage aesthetic by mixing hand drawn elements with chopped up photographs. I thought it would help give the piece a nice, light hearted kind of atmosphere. As for the inspiration for the story, my walk to uni had a big part to play really. For a month or so before the piece was due, walking through Bruntsfield links was comically windy. I was nearly getting blown off my feet day to day, plastic bags were terrorising civilians and i imagined men with toupees refusing to leave their homes. I found it all quite funny and thought it would be appropriate subject matter for our brief themed: ‘the environment’. “
Murray is off to Australia on placement in a few weeks – hope that the weather is better behaved for him there!

This project is by year 4 Digital Media and Interaction Design student, Calum Parsons. Calum says “I wanted to experience working with green screens in an outdoor location on this project. The howling wind and rain on the day of the shoot certainly made it challenging, and dealing with it in post-production ruined my life for two weeks. 2/10 would not recommend. Turned out pretty okay though. Fun module.”
