Last night I presented my presentation at the Digital Media Deisgn Center at Nanyang Polytechnic. YT Lee hosted the event, produced by Keolnmesse. I met another Denny who helped with the technical issues in the audiorium as well as Albert from the school. Mark Chavez was there. Marc is currently setting up the animation program at NTU but went to school at UCLA with Doug Chiang and worked at Dreamworks back on Prince of Egypt. (more…)
