Information - Animate Projects: All that is solid + Q&A with Osbert Parker
All that is solid: the third Animate OPEN sets out to celebrate, subvert and confound expectations of what animation can be. The fifteen short films, selected from an international open call, are from Austria, Belgium, England, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Scotland, South Korea, the USA and Wales. They explore subjects that range from intimate, personal stories to wider geopolitical events, including the COVID-19 pandemic, the invasion of Ukraine, and the climate crisis.
They consider the places we call home, and our need to connect with other humans, animals and nature. The diverse animation techniques represented include photo cut-out, Risograph, kitchen lithography, timelapse, charcoal, pinscreen, 3D, stop motion, and hand-drawn on paper.
Live Q&A with Osbert Parker, Director of High Street Repeat (co-directed by Laurie Hill) will be present for a live Q&A after the screening. Osbert Parker is Emmy and three times BAFTA-nominated, best known for creating stories that use experimental and innovative film techniques. His award-winning films often combine photo cut-out animation with objects and live action to create imaginary landscapes in mixed media short films, commercials, TV entertainment and online content.
