Go go go! Women in Experimental Animation
'Animation for Live Action' is the first event of a monthly programme series in three parts exploring animation within experimental film.
Since the days of early cinema and through to the present, animated film has attracted female practitioners who have been finding their own methods for working with the medium whilst contributing to its development.
The films within this programme deploy modes of humour, irony, absurdity, the grotesque, mystery, beauty and defiance where qualities of shape, colour, texture, light, materiality and movement and questions of process itself are given priority.
Audiences will experience a wealth of unexpected insights, imagery and unusual perspectives taking place alongside a wide range of different media including the use of stop motion, animated body fluids, pixilation, drawing, found footage, photo-collage,textiles, painting, frame-by- frame and frameless, handmade, direct film and performance.
This programme is curated by BEEF member Vicky Smith with input from Marcy Saude and Sam Francis and made possible by the support of Arts Council England.
Full details on artists/filmmakers and film listings to follow online and within the programme brochure available at each event in the series.
