Saltburn Digital Village

At Teesside University there are several Digital Fellows. Here are a couple of animated movies that have come out of their work in the Labs. [note - at this point in the event we also showed some Animex aware winners too which have been removed from the blog now as we have not received permission to YouTube them]

Steve explains who the characters are that were involved in the making of the Room 202 video. People that were all in Vienna and took part in the Video-bridging conference there. Steve and Barry were appointed Ambassadors to the Lithuanian Republic of Angels and Steve explains that they intend to establish an Embassy in Carlin How.

Welcome to Saltburn Community Theatre for this years Animex Fringe event. The event has been organised by Teesside University’s  Institute of Digital Innovation. Once again the local community have been very much involved in the creation of the content for this event.

First we will see some animations by the children of Whitecliffe  Primary School followed by 4 animations produced a few years ago by adults in Skinningrove.

Then we will see some animations by students who are winners and runners up in the Animex awards followed by some animations created by the University’s Digital City Fellows.

We will then have a presentation from Councillor Mike Findler who, as my predecessor, opened this event last year and ended up in an animation himself (so who knows what lies in store for me !)

Finally we will see the World Première of “The Force is With You” which has been produced in partnership with the Institute of Digital Innovation, the Skinningrove Community, Whitecliffe Primary  School, Cleveland Police  and Redcar & Cleveland Community Safety Partnership.
