Day began with Michael Ingrassia lesson, where he showed 3D industrial toy design and interesting web design with animated character. He used Maya package. |
Dalibor Ka?má? introduced a new product from MS Expression family – Blend, and using attractive animated samples explained new document code – XAML to the auditorium. |
There became a queue in front of Dalibor after his lesson. Visitors were hungry for additional info. |
Michael Ingrassia continued with another presentation, where he showed nex-gen Xbox game development, character modeling in Autodesk Maya and finishing in ZBrush and Mudbox tools. |
Št?pán Bechynský showed on the animated sample application the absolute news –Microsoft Silverlight technology. It is designed for creating the interactive web applications and multimedia. |
All the time of the presentation Št?pán Bechynský stayed loyal to his company’s colors. |
The last hour of the educational project AniDesign was focused to facial modeling and animation. Michael Ingrassia presented several types of head animations by well-known authors and described their creation processes. |
The workshop attracted the visitors during the breaks – they had opportunity to test the animation package Maya in praxis. Karel Hibala, deputy of A/W Graph company was all the time in siege of interested people. (orange T-shirt) |

The lessons mainly attracted students. Systematical education of people interested in professional attitude to multimedia art will surely help to entirely fill not only this hall in near future. |
