Mr Lam Chi Chun (BACM 2010 graduate) shines in the 4th Hong Kong Mobile Film Festival

Chi Chun, a 2010 graduate, took home three awards at the 4th Hong Kong Mobile Film Festival: the Grand Award, the Best Animation and Best Story awards with his film The Launch, which was the final-year project for his Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Creative Media. The project took about ten months to complete, from developing the story and drawing the actual characters to sequencing the scenes.

In his film, he emphasises the importance of cherishing our surroundings. The film depicts how one day a boy removes a component from his loyal robot dog in order to help repair a space rocket. But his plan goes terribly wrong because he can’t get his robot dog or the rocket to move ever again.
