| Me featured in the 3x3 annual No. 7! Cover illustration by SHOUT |
Ta-daaa!
Pretty old news but I became a merit winner in Animation category in the 3x3 Illustration Annual No. 7 (professional show) call for entries, and so my work now has been published in the annual that I always considered my yearly illustration bible. Still didn't get a copy of it from New York, so I can't take a photograph of the spread, but the work that was published is my animation series for Lithuanian National TV channels charity action 'When I grow up, I will be..' ('Kai užaugsiu, būsiu') that I made about a year ago. You can see animations (without the soundtrack) at
http://www.kata-illustration.com/index.php?/animation/ltv-lithuanian-national-tv/ and here are some of the stop frames from it:

| When I grow up, I will be a musician! |
 |
| When I grow up, I will be a stylist! |
 |
| When I grow up, I will be a pharmacist! |

To be honest, I'm not totally happy with the actual animations, as I'm not a professional animator, and I made these long time ago without a proper knowledge of animation as a genre and not even knowing how properly use flash, so even for me they look unprofessional now but I have to admit that a recognition from the 3x3 annual jury panel in the professional category is very pleasant and encouraging.
P.s. I'ts funny to see the typography that I used in the end of every animation - I knew I'm bad at it, but I didn't know I'm so so so bad at it - ridiculously BAD, so bad, I can't believe I made it. And some parts of the animations are so unfinished!! haha. but I think I might got the merit award because of the fact that these animations were made by an illustrator which is obvious I guess from looking into these stop frames (above). Please don't laugh at me, I promise to submit something better this year, and this time to the professional illustration category.
Till then, thank you 3x3 for featuring my work in the annual!
