Karolina Novitska wins 2006 Adobe Design Achievement Award

Happenings

Karolina Novitska, current student of the Dynamic Media Institute at Massart, was announced the Winner of 2006 Adobe Design Achievement Awards in "Live Action" category. The student winners were honored by Adobe and the design community at a special event held on July 20, 2006, at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, Canada...

The wining entry "Crossword" is a cinematic visualization of Alzheimer's disease achieved by exploring various digital and analog manipulations of printed typography. Using a stop-motion technique, Karolina sequenced more than 2,000 still images to create a flowing cinematic experience. The conceptual elements of confusion associated with this disease are accentuated by the soundtrack, which plays in reverse during the 'dream' sequence and seamlessly switches to forward play during the 'reality' section of the film.
