Darklight: New Animation Shorts

Programme curated by Synth Eastwood for last year's Darklight festival.

Fresh (well, maybe not exactly fresh) from their endeavours in the Rainbow Warehouse last night, Synth Eastwood present a selection of animated shorts which they curated for last year’s Darklight Festival in Dublin. Drawn entirely from submissions, it’s a sizeable platter of new talent working in all kinds of styles. Highlights include Michal Socha’s saucy use of black, white and red in Chick (pictured), Aaron Hughes’ backwards comedy and a satire blending live action and stop-motion from Croatian artist Ana Husman.
