Students involved in the 2018 Ohio University 48-Hour Shootout were busy throughout the evening of Friday, February 2 getting things going on their individual productions. WOUB’s Emily Votaw dropped in on the animation teams involved in the competition: Stump Studios and the aptly named animation team, around 11 p.m. on Friday night, to check in on how their productions were progressing.
The students were given their random genres, lines of dialogue, and props earlier in the evening, during the competition’s 5 p.m. kickoff event in Baker 230. The groups were about seven hours deep when Emily Votaw stopped by, and things are looking good for our animation groups.

(WOUB Public Media/Emily Votaw)Stump Studios took advantage of the enormous magic-marker friendly idea room in Scripps Hall to develop their film idea. The teams were given the prop of a cardboard box, the genre of a coming-of-age comedy and the line “I know my value. Anyone else’s opinion doesn’t really matter.” (WOUB Public Media/Emily Votaw)A close up of the work being done by Stump Studios in Scripps Hall late in the evening on Friday, February 3.
