TAIS Showcase 011

This year TAIS showcase theme was everything & anything about Bunny. Actually I been pleasantly surprised by number of quality animations submitted this year. My favorite short of the Bunny Show has been done by Eurico da Costa Ng (#31). Second place in my personal rating belong to Nick Cross (#28). His animation just a little bit too dark, for my taste. I don't know, how jury and audience has distributed real prizes, because I left theatre right after the show.
Among the films which was screened out of competition come across an couple real gems too.Thats it.

Before show started I have had time to make a quick sketch of the screening room entrance.
