MALAYSIANSKINI | Like most auteurs, Wan Zulfadli Ad-Dinnie Wan Azmi is more comfortable behind the camera.
He obliges to an interview anyway, reeled in by the opportunity to speak about his two favourite things - teaching and a unique animation technique called rotoscoping.
Cikgu Dinnie, as his students call him, recently made headlines for B.B. - Batuh Bijanji - the animated short film that won Best Film by Popular Jury at a Brazillian film festival for student work.
His day job is as an art and physical education teacher at Sekolah Kebangsaan Temong, a rural primary school in Serian, Sarawak. After school hours, he makes films with and of his students.
