As always, here at Bucks we strongly encourage our students to enter competitions. Even if you don't win, the experience will teach you a huge amount about what is needed to bring a project to completion. Every time you enter a competition you will get a little (maybe a lot) better. You will hone your skills, and improve your chances of building a successful career in the industry.

For more on the experience of studying at Bucks New University, come and visit us at one of our Open Days,  take a virtual tour of one of our animation studios, check out what our students think of our course, and see why we're ranked in the top 12 creative universities in the UK. Find out why we're giving free laptops to all our students, and why we give all our students free access to videos at Lynda.com. Also, see what financial assistance might be available to you.

And find out about how our online video tutorials work. 

What is the Eleven Second Club?

The 11 Second Club is a monthly character animation competition, and a great way for aspiring animators to practice their skills and get their work noticed. Animators from all over the world participate, animating a character speaking a line of dialogue, which is provided every month by the club.

Throughout the competition, participants can share their progress with one another and critique each other's work - just like in a real animation studio. At the end of the month, all the participants vote for the submission that they consider the best for that month - so it's a very democratic process. The idea of the 11 Second Club is "to give animators a chance to practice their skills in a fun, challenging environment".

It's all about the acting

How do you enter?

To participate, the first thing you'll need to do is to download this month's audio file. Then, use the month to animate a character performing the line, using whatever acting you feel interprets the audio best.

Finally, upload your movie to the site before the end of the competition. To get the most out of the club, use the "Work in Progress" forum throughout the month to get feedback on your work. The feedback you get from your peers will make your work that much stronger! Just like in a real studio, you will get used to both giving and receiving notes.

Time runs from the first of the month - Eastern Standard Time

What are the dates of each competition?

The competition runs from 12:01 am New York time on the 1st of each month until midnight New York time on the last day of the month.

The Voting period runs from the 1st to the 5th of each month. The winner is announced on the 5th of each month.

There are many free character rigs available

But I don't know anything about modeling or rigging! How can I participate without my own character???

Relax! No one said anything about modeling or rigging your own character. There are plenty of characters available online for you to animate with. Have a look in our "Resources" section to find expressive and ready-to-animate rigs for most popular 3D programs.


Can I still enter the competition if I'm a paper-and-pencil animator, or if I use stop-motion puppets? 

Of course! Animation is animation. However you feel most comfortable animating your entry, then that's how you should approach it. All that's really required is that you are able to upload a quicktime movie of your work to the site by the end of the month. The style and the medium is absolutely up to you!


What if I don't want my work picked apart and posted for everyone to see?

If you're troubled by the thought of having a professional animator pointing out areas of your work that need improvement, you can decline the prize by unchecking the box on the entry submission page at any time before voting starts. In the event that you win, the eCritique™ prize will go to the next highest rated entry.

That said, the experience of having someone much better than you point out your mistakes in front of a crowd of your peers is a daily one for a working animator (in sessions called "dailies" or "sweatbox"), and it's one of the best ways you can improve your work.


Wow, I really want to win! What are the things that will disqualify my entry and prevent me from winning?

Glad you asked! Here are the rules you need to be sure to follow to avoid having your entry disqualified and ineligible for voting or winning:
• Don't edit the sound file (beyond adding silence before/after if needed).
• Don't put your name or contact info anywhere on the actual video (this makes voting unfair).
• Don't try to upload files more than 10MB (the server will automatically reject it).
• Don't use anything overtly offensive (this is not the place for crude sexual humor).
• Don't try to cheat. You can give your own entry a high rating if you think it deserves it, but you are not allowed to organize groups of friends to give your entry unfairly high ratings. Our system is set up to check for suspicious voting activity, and if we find you've been cheating, consequences can include entry disqualification, account suspension, or a permanent ban from the site.

Is there anything else I should know?

Here are the terms and conditions.

To see more about the contest, go to www.11secondclub.com. As always, here at Bucks we encourage our students to enter competitions and compete at the highest level. You may not win, but what you will learn by entering is almost always invaluable. Competitions help you sharpen your skills, raise your game, and make your work as professional as possible. Plus, you never know - you might actually win!

Bucks Unite App Design Competition: Win £250!

Summer money: a competition to win £250! Rebecca Rochon, Senior Lecturer in Education and Learning Development, has developed a new App called Unite, which allows students to connect with other students before starting university. The App was successfully entered into the JISC Summer of Student Innovation, winning £5,000 for Bucks students to develop the App further. Now Rebecca needs some help from designers and animators at Bucks to help bring the project to life.

What is the JISC Summer of Student Innovation?
The JISC Summer of Student Innovation is a chance for students to create real technology solutions to improve education, research and student life.  JISC champions the use of digital technologies in UK education and research and is funding learners with new ideas on how to use technology to improve student life.

What is the winning app?
The winning project is called Unite. It is a mobile app to connect people through higher education. And it now needs some student-designed graphics.

What specifically is needed?
The following elements need to be designed:

1. A logo
2. The app icon (if different, but presumably incorporating the logo)
3. A colour scheme and font choice for interface

Who is it aimed at?
The main target market is students aged 18-24, but it should have general appeal.

What style should the design be?
The design can be in any style, but it should be universally appealing. To get inspired, just take a look at your phone and see other apps that have been well designed. Good app designs are simple, clear and stylish.

Who is eligible to enter?
Bucks students and recent graduates.

What is the deadline?
The competition closes at 5pm on August 15th.

Who do you submit to?
Designs must be submitted to Rebecca Rochon at Bucks New Uni. Please submit by email to Rebecca.Rochon@bucks.ac.uk and (just to be safe) cc Rebecca at hello.unite@gmail.com

Who will own the IP?
In submitting your work, you are agreeing that (if selected) the submission becomes the property of the project. It may be used and adapted without any further consultation from you.

Where can I find more information?

Thames Valley Student Film Competition - £200 cash prize

Connecting Thames Valley Tech (CTVT) is running a film competition open only to students at universities in the Thames Valley (including High Wycombe). The competition brief is to produce a video about the diverse range of technology companies that we have across the Thames Valley. The winner will receive £200 in cash and will appear as the featured “about us” video on the front page of CTVT for at least three months. The deadline is Midnight on 24th April 2014

What is the Thames Valley?

The Thames Valley is, as the name suggests, the valley through which the Thames river runs. It boasts a diverse range of technology companies including; Space, Engineering, Motor Racing, Robotics, Telecommunications, Information Technology, Film and Games.


What is the Brief? 

The brief, aimed exclusively at student film-makers, is to produce an engaging video highlighting the diverse range of technology companies that we have across the whole of the Thames Valley. The winning video must be under two minutes, and will be featured on the front page of the CTVT website for a period of three months. To view the beta site please go to www.ctvt.co.uk/home.

Your winning video will feature where the current Samsung news article is positioned.


What is Connecting Thames Valley Tech?

CTVT is the brainchild of Louize Clarke and Adam Clark. Louize and Adam met at a local technology event and discovered they had a shared frustration that the Thames Valley, once known as the ‘Silicon Valley of Europe’, had all but lost its sparkle.

While the Thames Valley continues to be a hotbed for cutting-edge technology in areas as diverse as motor racing and space science, it had been overtaken by new technology hubs that both Government and media were now lavishing their attention on.

Louize and Adam also agreed on the main reason for its demise in public affection. While there were many agencies and initiatives promoting the region, there wasn’t a central ‘mouthpiece’ to showcase the Thames Valley’s innovative spirit toward a new generation of entrepreneurs and high-growth businesses. And those technology firms already based in the region often found themselves operating in isolation, unaware of the wide range of potential partners, customers and employees who were just a stone’s throw away.

These views were shared by many others, but doing anything about it usually fell into the ‘just too hard’ category. Not so for Louize and Adam, who in the face of this apathy decided to challenge the status quo and created CTVT.


How to Enter

Should you wish to speak directly to Louize at CTVT to gain more information please e-mail louize@indigoloop.co.uk and we can arrange a time to talk.

You must produce a video of not more than 2 minutes

Upload to a video sharing platform (such as DropBox) and email the link to takethemic@ctvt.co.uk with your name, age, educational establishment you are currently studying at and a contact e-mail and phone number.


The deadline

Closing date: Midnight 24th April 2014


The Prize

The winner will receive £200 cash and will appear as the featured “about us” video on the front page of CTVT for three months.

The Rules

This competition is only open to students studying in full time education at Schools, Colleges and Universities based in the Thames Valley.


The Fine Print

Student Showcase - Jens Kopke's "highly commended" work for AD&D

This very stylish short video is by Bucks graduate Jens Kopke, who entered it for the Design and Art Direction (D&AD) awards and was "highly commended" for his work.

D&AD is an educational charity which exists to promote excellence in design and advertising. They aim to "reward great ideas that are well executed and appropriate".

Entering competitions like D&AD is a great way for students to test their skills and compete internationally. Winning prizes is an excellent way to build a profile and also get noticed by employers.

Getting that first job is always the hardest step in launching a career. But having an award on your CV is the best start you can have.

And, even if you don't win, the process of entering competitions imposes its own discipline, forcing you to raise your game and do the very best possible job you are capable of. Which is something that few people ever regret.
