I’ve finally drawn up final categories and shortlist for the ‘advanced moving image’ that I think has been the most exciting for the year. In hindsight I should have done the shortlist first. But the comments on this post helped coalesce things and bring it down to a neat ten listing: ‘Deciding the best moving image of 2005‘.
- Best digital film
- Best music video
- Best machinima
- Most innovative in video gaming
- Best motion graphics
- Best interactive/installation
- Best live visuals by a VJ/generative filmmaker
- Best product
- MVP (Most valuable 2005 contribution from the above areas)
- Breakthrough artist of the year
Each category shortlist should now come thick and fast. Hopefully the auto-posting should work…
