Intel's Digital Drag Race
28-01-2009 //
Now here’s something you don’t see every day; designers battling each other in a race to create short animations using the most cutting edge computer hardware and software. Commodore Gaming provided the desktop systems for the digital drag race, illustrating that our PCs are equipped to meet the ever-growing needs of designers and gamers alike.
‘Speed, style and skill’ were put to the test. The selected designers had 70 minutes to create a 17 second movie clip around the theme of ‘Innovation’, starting from scratch! After 70 minutes of hard-core creation the work results were evaluated by a panel of design experts to reveal the winner. Pretty amazing to see these design wizards coming up with concepts and creating movies on the spot.
If you are interested in the field of design and animation then the video clips on the Digital Drag Race website are a recommended watch!
