PALM SPRINGS, Calif., June 30, 2021 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

The biggest event for short films in North America, a designated

awards-qualifying event for the Oscars, Baftas and Goyas, the 2021 Palm Springs

International ShortFest(

https://www.indiewire.com/t/palm-springs-international-shortfest/ ) announced

its juried award winners on 28th June. An animated short film, Step into the

River (China/France), sponsored by Huion and directed by Weijia Ma, won the

best animated short at the festival. Following the Silver Hugo Award of Chicago

International Film Festival, this is another international award that Step into

the River won.

The film explores a specific period of China and tells a story from the

perspective of girls from that time. In this 15-minute film, tens of thousands

of drawings were produced and rendered, which means a massive workload for

animators. To help the creators finish their works in a comfortable and

efficient way, Huion offered some of its most powerful drawing devices to the

animation team, among which Kamvas Pro 22(2019) played an important role during

the creation.

Kamvas Pro 22(2019) is a 21.5inch pen display that introduced by Huion in 2019.

With its large working area and outstanding color performance, users can render

more detailed and natural drawings conveniently. Besides, the anti-glare

screen, the pen-on-paper drawing experience, the tilt support, and high

pressure sensitivity level are provided to facilitate the work of creators.

'Rich details of drawings can be preserved and presented authentically on this

pen display', said Jihua Zhu, one of the background painters from the team, 'we

scan the pastel drawings to keep the rich details of the image. On this screen,

with vibrant colors we can continue adding lines to make the image better'.

With the help of Huion pen display, creators of this animated short film such

as background painters and animators can not only enjoy a comfortable and

reliable work device but also express their ideas efficiently and

realistically, making their works more vivid and appealing.

As a professional supplier of graphic input devices, Huion products have been

widely applied in areas such as CG animation, digital film making, ID design,

architectural design, etc.
