Glass animator Thom Fraser has been announced as the winner of STUDIO’s inaugural CREATE STUDIO competition at a Sydney event last night. His winning work has been unveiled alongside the other three finalists, which will be aired on STUDIO as channel commercial from May 2013.
Thom Fraser first discovered the technique in his studies at the Victorian College of the Arts, and began experimenting in the rare method which involves animating hundreds of individual glass paintings. Thom created much of his winning artwork over ten days of non-stop painting, captured in the 30-second promo.
