Animate Projects have consistently been at the vanguard of the most interesting animation around the world, and the third Animate OPEN is no exception.
The films 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 places we call home and our need to connect with humans, animals and nature.
A wealth of animation techniques are represented - photo cut-out, Risograph, kitchen lithography, timelapse, charcoal, pinscreen, 3D, stop motion, and hand-drawn on paper.
The fifteen films - selected from an open call - come from Austria, Belgium, England, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Scotland, South Korea, the USA and Wales.
We're delighted to welcome filmmakers Osbert Parker and Laurie Hill (High Street Repeat) to the screening to talk about their work. And a big thanks to Animate Projects for making this screening happen.
