The Best of MAGI – Free of Dialogue 

Conveying an idea or narrative with not a word spoken, these distinct and vivid animations from the Master of Animation, Games and Interactivity at RMIT University astutely harness other means of audio-visual expression to convey compelling stories and experiences. Unfolding without traditional dialogue, the spectacle, movement, acting, symbolism, mise en scene, form and mood of these animations communicate their meaning and associations. Focusing on what they do, not what they say, the performance of the characters of these animations have become even more paramount - their gestures, expression and action conveying extraordinary personality and emotion. Without speech, other sounds importance are heightened with sound effects, music and ambiance used in inventive and compelling ways. 

- Matthew Riley, Masters of Animation, Gaming and Interactivity, RMIT University
