The combined length of the films in 1 hr 20 min, and the rest of the time afterwards will be taken up with an informal discussion. Poster attached.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No particular trigger warnings apply to any of the films. The first one is sci-fi, while the second one is more rooted in real life &#8211; both are solid cornerstones for the sekai-kei genre, and deal with themes of disconnect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those who dabble in Japanese animation may be familiar with Shinkai&#8217;s name through his massive success works in recent years such as Your Name and Suzume. This is a great opportunity to watch his early stuff on a relatively large projection!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The goal of the Animation Forum (in no particular order) is to&nbsp;<strong>enjoy animation, think about animation and artists&#8217; moving image in a very expanded sense and critically,<\/strong>&nbsp;and to&nbsp;<strong>spread technical skills that let you incorporate animated\/video elements into your artistic practice<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This screening session + discussion is a good opportunity to think about how pop culture and &#8220;high art&#8221; may feed into and interact with eachother, and where we can go from there as artists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope to see many of you there !!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All the best,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Petra<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Petra Szem\u00e1n &lt;Petra.Szeman@newcastle.ac.uk&gt; Hello everyone, This is your belated invitation to the first iteration of the&nbsp;ANIMATION FORUM this year, which will be a special SCREENING EVENT on&nbsp;Friday 11 October, 3-5pm&nbsp;in the Fine Art Lecture Theatre.
