From Cyranetta comes this amazing playlist of animated shorts from Gobelins School of Communications for the Annecy International Festival of Animation in Paris:
From Lines and Colors by Charley Parker: “Each year, the Goeblins students refresh my faith in the state of 2D and hand-drawn animation.
This year, in keeping with the theme of the festival, the animations celebrate pioneering women in the field of animation: Alison de Vere, Claire Parker, Evelyn Lambart, Lotte Reiniger and Mary Blair.”
Cyranetta called the playlist, “a small series of specialness” and I agree completely.
I hope your weekend is many small moments of specialness.
I watched these first thing this morning and came back to watch them again. How wonderful. I loved that the five animators had such different styles and that the tributes caught that, as well as the different moods. The ‘Lotte’ short made me cry,btw, while the ‘Mary’ one put a big smile on my face–all that exuberant color!
Thank you.
