Manchester Animation Festival Pt.3

For the final day at MAF, I got to see some really interesting stuff. I went to the Ray Harryhausen Retrospective and got to learn all about the history of one of the most famous stop motion special effects artists and directors of the 20th Century. I learned a lot about how special effects were made before the digital era, as well as some of the methods that went into the ways of making his models. Afterwards we got to see a film version of the classic film Clash of the Titans.
 The film was taken out of a vault and hadnt been used since the 1980s. You can see that it's turned pink due to it aging over 40 years.

 After the film they had some of the props and models used in the film, so I had to grab a picture with them. MAF this year was really fun, I hope that i'll be able to attend it again one day.
