Watch “Jagon” in Full

Last year, the impressive Filmakademie production “Jagon” was the only student project nominated alongside the big names – Trixter, Scanline and ILP – for an animago AWARD in the “Best Postproduction” category. Here is the 20-minute short film in full.

“Jagon” was created with the support of the television broadcaster SWR. The one-minute long sequence shot was particularly challenging in the project: it was seamlessly assembled from eight different shots, for which the student team used motion-capture data from the fight scene. Tools used in the workflow were Maya, Houdini, Nuke and Captury Studio.
