Presentation: Animation to the Rescue, Bev Standish
Bev Standish will present on using animation to rescue you from dire straights. She will show how she uses animation to solve major issues in documented footage, like when the whole audience stands up to sing the Star Spangled Banner in front of the camera so all you have is the picture of someone's back, for an entire song. She will demonstrate how to create an animation, make titles, a character, and some special effects (if time allows) She will use both Lightwave 3D and After Effects. Check out her work at http://www.digitalelfstudios.com/
