ACCAD Animation Airs on Science Channel
ACCAD's animation for "Jane: Mystery Dinosaur" premiered on the Science Channel July 24th. The 1 hour show featured short story segments that included 10 minutes of animation designed by ACCAD and CCAD students. ACCAD students modeled, textured, rigged, animated, lit, rendered and composited segments that brought Jane to life. "Jane: Mystery Dinosaur" is based on a 66 million year old skeleton discovered by The Burpee Museum of Natural History in Rockford, Illinois. ACCAD worked on this project with producer Dave Monk from Brave New Pictures (Chicago).
