Local freelancer wins MTV's "Art Beat" short video competition
Dippenaar's clip, entitled Bursting, will be broadcast on MTV from 1 October 2013, while Dippenaar himself will enjoy a six-week internship at MTV's HQ in Johannesburg, providing him with an opportunity to work and learn alongside well-known industry experts. His entry depicts a drum with the MTV logo on the face, which bursts open spewing out a kaleidoscope of colourful, organic forms.
Dippenaar is a graduate of Vega, the brand communication school based in Durban, where he specialised in creative brand communications and majored in multimedia design under the navigation of lecturer Dean Henning. Since graduating, Dippenaar has subsequently pursued his passion for broadcast and motion graphic design, having worked for a small Durban-based agency for a short while. He subsequently travelled to Europe and, after a lucky opportunity to animate for a company based in Austria, he decided to work freelance full-time, to try to learn more.

A confident and powerful short clip
Commented Tim Horwood, creative director of Viacom International Media Networks (VIMN) Africa: "Matt interpreted the brief brilliantly, creating a confident and powerful short clip that communicates the essence of MTV in just a few short seconds of video."
