Computer Animation Grad Wins Student Oscar!

Computer Animation Grad Wins Student Oscar!

Congratulations to Aviv Mano and the Ringling Computer Animation Department for another win! Last night, Aviv was among 16 strategically selected student winners who took part in the 46th Student Academy Awards and received recognition for their short films. The creation of his film, Game Changer, not only brought Aviv a Silver Medal, but also gave the Computer Animation Department more bragging rights while raising the number of Student Academy Awards to 15! Listen to Aviv’s acceptance speech.

Game Changer was created and acts as a direct reflection of what many children experience in their everyday lives through unsolicited molding and stereotypes of what falls within the lines of specific genders’ roles in society. Aviv discussed his message at the Awards Ceremony last night when he received his medal and spoke about his film:

Please, make children feel safe to be themselves at a young age. It could mean a world of difference for their sense of identity and the person they grow up to be.

The honor of Student Academy Award is not easily achieved, nor should it be taken lightly: there was a total of 1,615 entries from 255 domestic and 105 international colleges and universities. This award is an extraordinary accomplishment in itself, however, it also opens up the opportunity to compete for a 2019 Oscars Award in the Animated Short Film category with his winning film, Game Changer! Best of luck and CONGRATULATIONS!

Spaces

The Alfred R. Goldstein Library features a wide variety of quiet, group study, and work process spaces. Looking for a quiet study area? Make your way up to the 3rd floor to look for a book in the Research Collection or peruse the new art magazines while relaxing in comfortable seating. When the weather is nice, you can take your coffee from Roberta’s Café on the first floor to one of the four terraces to work outside and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature. Looking for meeting space to get together with a group? Check out the group study rooms, which are available on all three floors of the Goldstein Library. The 10 group study rooms are available to students on a first-come first served basis, or available for booking by Ringling College faculty and staff for group and class meetings.
