The design and animation of a 3D character will be without any doubt the biggest challenge for this semester. I am completely new to this subject so I’ve started from the beginning reading the 12 Principles of animation by the’old men’ of Walt Disney Studios, amongst them Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston, during the 1930s. Although they were created more than 80 years ago they are still relevant today:

Of all the dresses in the world, why these? 

This is how Lisa Armstrong describes this year’s ceremony. There aren’t many work of art gowns at the 85th academy awards - most of the starlets have opted for not too bright, not too extravagant or simply put boring dresses.

Here are the few exceptions - from worst to best dressed:

 Anne Hathaway wears Prada
Anne Hathaway made this year’s worst fashion choice.

Salma Hayek in a vampy Alexander McQueen

Fan Bingbing in a Marchesa that seems too bright for the red carpet

Jessica Chastain in a Giorgio Armani dress only she could pull of

Halle Berry in an elegant Versace gown

George Clooney’s beau Stacey Keibler in a similar Naeem Khan dress

Naomi Watts shines in an Armani Prive piece

Charlize Theron (in Dior) never fails to impress 

And my favourite dress from this year’s ceremony (ignoring the non-matching accessories) - Louise Roe in a Monique Lhuillier gown.
