We Won!

Congratulations, you did it!

The industry judges chose Mike's "R.I.P. Alice" as a first place winner, tied with another entry.

They picked Colleen's "House of Woooo" as the second place winner.

The Animation Magazine Staff Picks were: 2nd place, Jo's "The Princess and the Mermaid" and 3rd place: Emily's "Cow Kitty"

When choosing a winner, judges didn't know which entries were students or working professionals. You guys were competing with the world and did great! Also, I was told this morning (Shanghai time) that there was a strict critera: the concepts weren't just what the judges liked but what they could actually green light at this moment (i.e. what they're looking for for concepts).

I think we also did something in the public vote as well but I don't know for sure. Great stuff and a special thanks to our own local judges!

Here are all the entries...Sorry, i didn't know they were happening or I would have contacted you all to get out there and vote for your favorites.
