CTNX 2011 - 1st of 9 posts (CTNX posts UPDATED Nov 28th, more links)

(UPDATE Nov 28th -- I HAVE JUST ADDED 1 NEW POST & LINKS TO SEVERAL OF THE ARTISTS FEATURED IN THESE POSTS) Only 3 years old... CTNX has become the premiere animation event. This year featured more exclusive guests... and SOLD OUT panels and programs.....
The exhibit hall was the largest yet with all the spaces sold out... amazing for such a young show, but obviously the demand is there!
Around the convention you could enjoy free demos of traditional hand-drawn animation...
and demos of computer animation...
Artists appreciated the free live model workshops....I love seeing the models in all their different costumes & poses! So creative...
There was so much programming for the attendees to enjoy.. the hard part was trying to decide what to see!
The live drawing demo stage was always busy... and the overhead screens allow everyone to see the drawings in progress... not just those in the front row.
The screen also provided reminders about more programming not to miss, like the RalphMcQuarrie gallery!
In the lobby area, there were impromptu portfolio reviews by attending pros....
So much action going on... with an oversized Incredible Hulk overseeing it all!
Look at the long list of workshops and artist panels... all SOLD OUT!
Enjoy the following 8 posts with highlights from 2011.. and start planning now to see it all for yourself in 2012! I have just added new CTNX photos courtesy of Matthew K !
