Hi, we had other entries from teenagers with similar skills, so Euan's work is not an outlier:

I hope works of these extremely talented kids were not demotivating for other contenders

Thank you for direct links to these. Winner is obviously much outlierier than these other two "mere mortal" young animators.

Mentally daydreaming, my thoughts flash back to 2002 — back when a simple 16-color, ten second animation (done by a peer at our elite creative arts HS) took days to render [PowerMacG4MDD Rage128 FTW!] and secured this peer artist acclaim from his classsmates, state, and future creative employers.

How far we've come. To where we'll go. Just incredible — can't imagine what the next decades will allow, but looking forward to robotic dumplings/streetfood.
