Two CCA Students Win VH1's and IFILM's "Show Us Your Junk" Contest
San Francisco, April 6, 2006
Students Paul Trillo and Noah Cunningham have won VH1's and IFILM's "Show Us Your Junk" Contest, a viewer-generated video competition. Their video, "Disaster Series," is about Cunningham's bad luck and clumsiness and shows some worst-case scenarios in everyday tasks.
The two Media Arts students initially produced the 1 minute 26 second video for fun, and later did the sound design in Richard Beggs's Sound for the Moving Image course. All of the sound in the video was produced through the Foley technique, through which sound effects are added to a film's sound track.
The student's video aired on VH1's "Web Junk 20," a show devoted to comical Internet video clips. The video is also available for viewing at IFILM's website.
For their work, Trillo and Cunningham won an HP digital media center with Intel technology and a Sharp Aquos liquid crystal television.
