UNic Student Wins First Prize at the Countryside Animafest Cyprus 2015

This year more than 40 distinguished independent filmmakers from all over the world, including Cyprus, armed with their dreams and their craft, expressed a strong social commentary through their films. The struggle of humans to create beauty in this world against all odds is at the heart of their work.

Unique artists, stunning imagery, humour, experimentation and lots of great animation filmmaking, enchanted the audience of the festival which took place at one of the island’s most magical locations: the Palaepaphos archaeological site, a world heritage monument."

This is a very important award for Rebecca, the Department and the University. It is worth mentioning that the specific meticulous animation technique that Rebecca used for her animation was taught at the Department of Design and Multimedia for the first time this past year.

We would like to congratulate Rebecca and wish her all the best for her future career!
