10.280.2008 - Ready, Set, Animate! Intel, Hollywood and Facebook Gear Up for Mass Animation

Bringing together the worlds of computer graphics, Hollywood and Facebook, Intel is set to kick off its Mass Animation collaboration on Nov. 17, running through Jan. 30, 2009. Participants will animate individual shots from the 5-minute, professional-quality short film via Mass Animation's Facebook application, which uses Autodesk Maya 3-D modeling and animation software. The community on Facebook will then view and vote on their favorite shots. If their shots make the final cut, animators will receive compensation, a portion of the film's potential earnings and credit in the film. Based on the community's votes, Mass Animation will award computer systems based on Intel processors to select contributors. Whether you want to animate or vote on the submissions, stay up-to-date on this exciting collaboration on Facebook by becoming a fan of the Mass Animation page or by visiting www.massanimation.com. - View Press Release - Visit Intel Corporation
