Dear Friends,

CEE Animation is inviting you to a new activity - CEE Animation Experience, a series of masterclasses organized in cooperation with selected partners in the CEE region. This new activity targets animation industry professionals, who will gain new insights as shared by top regional and European experts and get a rewarding experience of film production directly. The first edition will take place on 2 December at the Animateka International Animated Film Festival. The program will be implemented online and open to the public for free. 

 

The masterclasses will present the most current trends, case studies and strategies to local, national and regional communities of animation professionals, young talent and students. “Our aim is to bring an interesting program to a large public with a wide spectrum of specific topics. All activities of our CEE Animation platform lead to increasing filmmakers´ skills and improving the quality of animated projects in the CEE region. CEE Animation Experience will not be an exception,” explains Michal Podhradský, coordinator of this activity. 

 

The first CEE Animation Experience will be held online and be part of AnimatekaPRO, a festival platform dedicated to animated film professionals and students. The program consists of presentations of two animated feature films with live Q&A, followed by a keynote and case studies of projects in the field of hybrid animation. During the whole day, special emphasis will be given to the development of chosen projects.

One of the main topics of the CEE Animation Experience will be expanded and hybrid animated projects. We are inviting you to watch two of our case studies: Sympoietic Bodies by Flavia Mazzanti and Microcassette – The Smallest Cassette I've Ever Seen by Igor Bezinovićband Ivana Pipal. Both will be available on Vimeo between 1 and 3 December.


Sympoietic Bodies
Sympoietic Bodies is an artistic-philosophical film exploring the disruption of boundaries between the human body and its social and physical surroundings. The plot follows the story of “C”, an inhabitant of a hybrid urban formation and her life in symbiosis with the surrounding environment.
 
Microcassette – The Smallest Cassette I've Ever Seen
Among the garbage heaps of a big landfill on a Croatian island, Zoki uncovers a microcassette. A close study of the discarded object serves as a tribute to chance and imagination.

Check out our Facebook event for more details about the program and join us on 2 December!

Kind regards,

CEE Animation Team
