Event: Weds, 14th September 2011
Deadline for submissions: Friday, 20th May 2011
Animation Explosion seeks to examine the all pervasive nature of animation across multi-media platforms. The aim of this one day event is both multidisciplinary, but also multi-modal in its output, aiming to examine both a range of approaches to the analysis of animation, but also to identify the breadth in application through animation practice. The event seeks to provide a welcoming space for the dialogue between animation practitioners and academics alike. To this end, we are seeking both academic papers, but also practical demonstrations. In addition this event will also foster the space for roundtable discussion with divergent animation groups, educators working within the realm of animation and industry practitioners to examine the future of funding and the sustainability of animation work across an international context.
