Egoyan wanted an animated title sequence for his logo using Armenian letters.
Participants were given a free hand; no animation technique restrictions were
imposed. They covered a diverse set of genres and techniques, including
traditional animation, 3D animation and motion graphics, and software tools such
as Maya 3D, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premiere and Adobe Flash. Garage Band was
used to compose the music for each of the sequences. Of the 14 submissions, 3 were
chosen by Egoyan for his website.
