World Rock Paper Scissors Society Lauds ACCAD Animation
A collaborative student animation from Winter Quarter's Procedural Animation class is receiving nice press. "Rock, Paper, Swords", the story of an unfair game of rock-paper-scissors which launches an epic battle between two stick-figure armies, is featured on the World Rock Paper Scissors Society website. World RPS says, "This is a very cool animated short" and encourages its members to see the animation and to look at the group's documentation of the process of making the short. The group of students who made the creative piece includes Chris Armitage, Cara Christeson, Jedrik Eliasen, Mike Ford, Kevin Johnsen, Tim Spicuzza and Eric Stegemoller. The course was co-taught by Professors Rick Parent (CSE) and Maria Palazzi (ACCAD).
