    VIEW Conference, the premiere international event in Italy on Computer Graphics, Interactive Techniques, Digital Cinema, 2D/3D Animation, Gaming and VFX, is now calling for entries for the VIEW Award 2013 competition. Last year, the VIEW Award brought forth some astonishingly talented animators into the public and industry spotlight.

    The 2013 contest is ready to widen its scope with new themes, new subjects and new contestants and will include both students and non-students works. Student works are especially welcome, since VIEW will always be the place to express and discover new Digital Talents.
