For more than 20 years, The Minnesota Electronic Theater has been the

served as the premiere showcase for locally-produced award-winning
animation and a unique venue for computer graphics professionals,
educators, and students to socialize.
The centerpiece of the evening is the MET Show Reel. The Show
Reel is an hour-long presentation of locally produced computer
graphics oriented short videos. They are selected from professional,
student, and independent entries submitted to a jury composed of last
year's award winners. At the end of the evening the 2011 MET
awards will be presented.
We look forward to seeing you Thursday.
Please pass this announcement along to anyone you think would
enjoy an evening of computer graphics.
