:: ANIMAC - MOBILE ::

.: Animac on tour to bring it to all publics and explain them in what consists the animated cinema.

Animac proposes, as one of the main objectives, to make the animated cinema closer to the citizens and to make it known and better valued by more people. That is the reason why Animac leaves home again, breaking with the limits of the auditorium and the city where the show takes place. Animac-Mobile has made a new selection of animated films to bring around a small show of the most significant sessions of the festival.

Animac-Mobile is a session specially addressed to schools and cultural institutions where two different performances are combined: firstly, a lecture in which it is explained what are the Animac and the animated cinema and, afterwards, the projection of 10 movies. All together makes a session of about one hour and a half of duration. The films have been selected through a criterion of technical and legal availability, because of their capacity to explain the characteristics of Animac and because of their quality and attractive for a public of all ages and interests.

These are the titles that will be screened during the Animac-Mobile:

Fliegenpflicht für Quadratköpfe, Stephan Müller, Alemanya 2004, 13' 24''

While Darwin sleeps, Paul Bush, Regne Unit 2004, 5 ’
More than three thousand insects appear in this film each for a single frame. As the colours glow and change across their bodies and wings it is as if the genetic programme of millions of years is taking place in a few minutes. It is a rampant creation that seems to defy the explanations of evolutionists and fundamentalists. It is like a mescalin dream of Charles Darwin's.

Wooly Town, Vera Neubauer, Regne Unit 2005, 5’ 45 ’’
Little Annie can’t help getting into to trouble for daydreaming in class.

Five months trying to draw New York, Marcel Pie Barba, EUA, Espanya 2005, 2 ’ 28’’
Una animación hecha en los locales de Nueva York, recogiendo y animando en dibujos los personages y las situaciones que aparecen durante el rato de hacer un café. Una mirada a la libreta de apuntes de Marcel Pié Barba, que nos revela la rápida, pero espaciada y siempre cambiante vida nuevayorquesa. En definitiva, éste es un modo de revivir la experiencia vivida por este estudiante de bellas artes, durante su estancia de cinco meses en la ciudad de Nueva York.
