Kyle lead the 3D animation masterclass at the packed Cinerama theatre for a enthusiastic group of animators, students and professionals. He tought the technics but he also foccused on giving live to a character. He took a small part of Pulpfiction to show the importance of point of camera, direction and point of view.
