 DID YOU KNOW:



1. That a Canadian has been nominated for an Academy Award
for best animated short?



2.  That the film in question, Luxo Jr.  by Bill Reeves and John
Lasseter is only the second computer animated film ever to
be nominated for an Oscar?  (The first, in the early 1970's,
was the Canadian film Hunger.)



3.  That Luxo Jr. (along with several other state-of-the-art
computer animated films) is going to have its first public
showing in Toronto on April 7?



If the answer to any of these questions is no, then chances are
there are lots of other things that we may be able to tell you
that are of interest.  If you think so, then give us a call.



All of this is part of Canada's largest and most important
meeting of specialists in computer graphics and
human-computer interaction, CHI+GI '87.
