ANtIMATION

Overview

With names like Pixar and Dreamworks playing king pins in the world of animation, we tend to forget the little guys. From the Academy Award winners and nominees of the Best Animated shorts — watch 2014’s winner Mr Hublot — to our own Brisbane-creations, born at the hands of dozens of local talents, animation is something that has long deserved its own celebration. And QUT’S creative showcase ANtIMATION is just that — three weeks of hip-hip-hooray for all things pixelled.

Presenting a huge range of creative work, ANtIMATION highlights the many materials, techniques, and languages that animators tend to utilise when it comes their craft. The work of international artists Philipp Artus (GERMANY), Piotr Duma?a (POLAND), Dustin Grella (USA), Max Hattler (UK), Don Hertzfeldt (USA), jonobr1 + lullatone (USA), Aaron Koblin (USA) and nerdworking (ISTANBUL) will be on show. And from our own haul, there’ll be Igor Coric, Chris Howlett, Jules & Miles, Isobel Knowles & Van Sowerwine, Merri Randall and Georgie Roxby-Smith.

There’s a huge world beyond Disney and Pixar, and ANtIMATION invites you to discover just that.
