1st Place: Liu Xiaofu
The judges said of Liu Xiaofu’s film, which also won the DAF China animation award: “Love the hand bunny. Simple, compelling and the glove at the end is perfect!”
Second place was awarded to Casper Christensen from Denmark and Daniel Clark, from the UK, was placed third.
Commenting on Casper Christensen’s film, the judges said: “This one gets the idea with just 3 visuals. The drawing style is nice and the music is not intrusive.”
Speaking about winning the animation award, Liu Xiaofu said:
“I felt so happy and excited to compete in the contest and to win the award. I would like to thank the Design Against Fur organizing committee’s appreciation and I am grateful for the appreciation of every juror, the tutor’s guideance, my classmates’ help and also my family members and friends, who supported me.
“All the creatures are equal. Trees, animals and human beings, all live in one planet and every species is animated. They have living space and a mode of existence of their own. We cannot trample on their lives unscrupulously just for the conspicuous clothes and vanity of nothing. We have the accountability to protect these animals, but not to massacre them. The earth not only belongs to us, but it also belongs to every life that lives on this planet.”
