Womanimation! MassArt Encore Edition
What is Womanimation? As the name implies, it’s a festival showcasing acclaimed animated films created by women from around the world, a celebration of the story-telling power of animation, particularly in the short form.
A special edition comes to Massachusetts College of Art and Design on Saturday March 30th at 3:00 pm in the Design and Media Center (DMC) Lecture Hall, on 621 Huntington Avenue in Boston. The event is free and open to the MassArt community and the general public.
In the length of a typical 90-minute feature film, this special edition of twelve films from ten countries will entertain and challenge, with visual styles from stop motion to computer animation to 2D, often blending styles and materials to achieve distinctive looks.
-----
A slideshow introducing the filmmakers will precede the program, and audience members will be given ballots to select their favorite films of the program. DJ Madame B will weave soundscapes created by women across the globe before and after the screening.
Festival organizers from MergingArts Productions, which produces the festival, will be in attendance to introduce the program.
The event is a SWAN Day event. SWAN Day is an international holiday held in March designed to showcase the power and diversity of women’s creativity.
