In preparation for the Senior Production of incoming 4th year BS Major in Digital Arts and Animation (BS-DIA) students, the Digital Arts and Computer Animation (DACA) Department held the Animation Production Summer Camp last 4 April to 21 May, 2011.
“Since it started April 2008, the event is being carried out annually pero depende pa kung merong may mahandle na mga teachers. At kailangan din dapat yung mag-attend eh mga qualified na mag-4th year next semester,” shared Camp Director Omar Aguilar.
Also, only those not hindered by summer classes were accommodated to join the said affair for them to concentrate on the 2-month seminar-workshop. With these requisites, only 16 students, including one faculty from Ateneo de Zamboanga University as his refresher course, had experienced being part of the advanced lectures and film-making activities.
Being conducted with utmost preparation at the Ateneo de Naga University’s DIA Laboratories, no major problems were encountered during the workshop.
Triumph over the Odds
With the cooperation of all participants and the presence of Alumni and college faculty members, the activity resulted to the creation of four films, namely Paano Hulihin ang Araw, Himig, Delevery Boy and Emo si Pedro, from the formed four teams.
Event Supervisor Fr. Danilo Isidro, Aguilar, Technical Staff Magno Edilberto Conag III and Creative Staff Francis John Bozan were the organizers, aides and facilitators during the event.
“Masyadong intense at talagang paganda ng paganda ang mga films na nagagawa ng mga estudyante. It was really all worth it; despite the sleepless nights and stressful days which stumbled upon us, kahit bumabagyo o umaaraw , the partakers done their movie projects beyond expectations,” verbalized Aguilar regarding the incidents happened at the affair.
“We can say na nasa right track ang mga nagsidalo and this endeavor really enhanced their skills as well as work habits for greater technological know-how and outputs. They were all hardworking at kung ano man ang i-suggest sa kanila eh sinusunod naman nila at higit pa dun,” furthered Aguilar.
In connection to the success of the event, the said four motion pictures still undergo revisions based from the constructive criticisms of the college faculty.
According to Aguilar, plans of incorporating them at various competitions, both local and international, are being considered at the moment like being part of Ateneo Digital Arts and Animation Festival on November, Animahinasyon and Gawad CCP para sa Alternatibong Pelikula.
