Exhibition Reception: Rewind, Play, Fast Forward: Animation and Game Design at FIT and Beyond

Join a reception on Thursday, January 29, from 5 to 7 pm, for the exhibition Rewind, Play, Fast Forward: Animation and Game Design at FIT and Beyond in the Art and Design Gallery in the Pomerantz Center.

Art and Design Gallery

Rewind, Play, Fast Forward: Animation and Game Design at FIT and Beyond celebrates animation and game design work by FIT students, faculty, and alumni of the School of Art and Design and the School of Graduate Studies.

The exhibition surveys works created in New York City and beyond, showing how storytelling appears in animation, where a storyline can take on a linear structure, and in game design, where players shape the story themselves. On display are a wide variety of game and animation art, concept and character designs, and games to play, along with a special guest exhibition of world-class work from Hornet, an New York–based animation studio that produces all forms of commercial work, including stop-motion and computer-generated animation.
