First-time NFB collaborator Arash Akhgari crafts a striking visual meditation on the seductive yet overwhelming nature of #MassMedia. Combining handmade sculptural #collages with ink and paint #animation , In the Shallows immerses viewers in the fragmented world of news, entertainment, and ads—an intoxicating current that threatens to drown our perception of reality. As we lose ourselves in endless streams of images and information, our inner worlds are inundated with outside noise, turning us into mere shadows of ourselves. Through its hypnotic imagery and innovative animation techniques, the film offers a powerful reflection on the #DigitalAge and the loss of #AuthenticConnection.

As a child in #Vietnam , Thao’s mother often rescued #ants from bowls of sugar water. Years later they would return the favour.

Boat People is an #animated #documentary that uses a striking metaphor to trace one family’s flight across the turbulent waters of history.

#Korean #animator Dahee Jeong crafts a #surreal world where people exist solely as garments—bodiless, faceless, going through the motions of daily life. As a shirt and a pair of pants step out of the closet and assemble into a human-like figure, they join others in a city of fabric-bound beings, performing everyday tasks with eerie familiarity. Through delicate #animation and a silent, #poetic approach, the film questions identity, routine and the meaning of #existence in a #society where appearances are everything. Society of Clothes is a co-production with #MiyuProductions and #BetweenThePictures.

Geared towards a #teen audience.

On the way to school, a boy is confronted by an enormous man whose hand grabs hold of his school bag and tosses it into the air. The hand pushes him towards a huge padlock, then forces him to enter through the keyhole: the schoolboy is imprisoned in a hazardous lock factory. Like the other children inside, he finds himself forced to operate a high-speed punch press. Struggling to follow the movements of the machine, he cuts off a finger. He tries to run away, but is recaptured.

Back at the factory he starts to cough up blood after inhaling iron particles that will prove lethal: the child dies on the job. Coldly, the hand picks up his body and drops it in the box the padlocks are shipped in, symbol of his murdered innocence.

How can we live with forced child labour? This #India / #Canada co-production is inspired by #Article32 of the United Nations Convention on the #RightsOfTheChild , which particularly upholds the child's right to be protected from economic #exploitation. An #AnimatedFilm without words for 12- to 17-year olds.

Up early for the short #animation strand, one of my favourite parts of the film festival. And yes, that is Rene Zelwegger at the far right.

Lunch, stroll then more film festival at the Filmhouse in a short while. Hopefully bagged some better pics with the big camera to check later.

This question came up on a discord the other day, so I made a video on adding accidental colors to a 2d painting or a 3d model to give it more life and color complexity #texturing #gamedev #animatedfilm #vfx #shading #materials #cg youtube.com/watch?v=vrWcHSd9gV

Tickets booked for special screening of the oldest surviving animated feature film, Lotte Reiniger's gorgeous Adventures of Prince Achmed, as the Filmhouse reopens this weekend.

1926 - nearly a century old, & being screened with live music. Wonderful.
