Tell us about yourself: I’m a dreamer who struggles to make my dreams come true. My team are consist of very passionate and generous friends who put their magic on our work.
What made you want to participate in Sony’s My Dot Moment Contest? I wanted to participate because it was an opportunity to share my dreams which came true. It really motivated us, we really did it!
What’s the inspiration behind your entry? I really dreamed about the story. As soon as I woke up, I tried to remember my dream, wrote it down, and visualized it.
What things do you enjoy about eYeka and what are some things which you hope could be improved on/added in the future? I really enjoyed the opportunity to express yourself and share whatever you made. I hope someday we can have a workshop program or course for the winners. So we can always develop and share our knowledge.
Any advice to your fellow aspiring filmmakers/animators? I’m not smart enough to give any advice. But what can I share from my thought is.. Keep dreaming, Keep inspired, and always do something, No matter what.

a great new contest has launched on eYeka for Calvin Klein
design the bottle shape of the next calvin klein fragrance for guys and for girls, and win up to $ 6,000 !
The brief is very open, since this is the first step of many to come: create the shape of the bottle. a simple, iconic shape to be decorated by the consumers at a later stage.
graphic design, 3D cad drawings or even hand-drawn sketches on a notebook / post-it are fine. do not concentrate solely on rendering and quality, but really on the main idea for the shape.
This all-girl trio were among the victors to walk away with a USD 1,000 prize in the recent Die-logs video/animation competition launched by the Lien Foundation.
Tell us about your team
Well, we’re 3 animation students currently pursuing our diploma. We’re 3 odd balls who like to experiment with different mediums and different style of animation.
What made you want to participate ‘Dielogs’?
It was a good opportunity to challenge ourselves and our creativity. And such opportunity isn’t easy to come by. We were also interested in sharing our thoughts and opinion about the topic ‘Death’ and also how others perceive death.
What’s the inspiration behind your entry? Our inspiration all came from our own personal experience and our perception of death. The final animation was the combination of all our experience and perception of death thru our relatives and family members.
What things do you enjoy about eYeka and what are some things which you hope could be improved on/added in the future?
The people there are really friendly! They are very approachable and they consistently urge us to go on and encourage us. And they have a really nice workplace! Everything seems really good really (:
Any advice to your fellow aspiring animators? Practice and practice and more practice. IDEAS ARE EVERYWHERE! After all it’s bringing your ideas to life! Lastly, don’t be afraid to express yourself thru animation!

Francois Gadrey, Degré7′s CEO, wanted to congratulate the winner himself, and explain the jury’s choice:
“We really appreciated his graphic approach. We can feel the fluctuation of the body (with the different actions) and the spirit (with the meditation standing). In short, we can feel in these humans are always thinking or acting. We liked the colors, the sobriety with the very coloured backgrounds and the monochromic shadow.”

In light of the recent changes in the Piaget competition (see http://blogen.eyeka.com/2010/03/05/update-on-the-piaget-brief/ ), you have until the 14th of March to submit your creations based on the original brief: “Piaget, Celebration and Place Vendome”. Three winners (1st, 2nd and 3rd) will be selected to win CHF 3000, CHF 2500 and CHF 1500, respectively. SO Finally evything is back to normal
But wait, here’s the best part: from the 10th onwards, the Piaget contest will be re-launched with a new brief and a new deadline where another three stand a chance to win CHF 3000, CHF 2500 and CHF 1500 as well! So what are you waiting for? Get submitting!
Thanks for your interest in the Piaget contest. We would like to inform you that there are important changes on the Piaget competition. Unfortunately, Piaget’s event at Place Vendome is cancelled due to legal reasons and as such, we have no choice but to amend the brief which was originally to create a video around the keywords “Piaget, Place Vendome and Celebration”.
This is a very difficult decision as we understand that many of you have started working on the existing brief and have put in a lot of effort. We’ve tried our best to avoid any changes but the circumstance makes it unavoidable.
For all those who submitted their entries in time for the Early Bird deadline, we will update you on Monday (8 March 2010). Meanwhile, the revised brief is currently being developed so please stay tuned for more updates! Again, please accept our sincerest apologies.
