The 30th Starz Denver Film Festival is making history this week. It goes from November 8-18th, 2007. I have been busy preparing for the Animation Station Event that took place this weekend at the festival, so as you noticed I have not touched my blog for a month.
Thank you Brent for sending a note out to the list-serv advertising this event. Animation Station was presented as a animation workshop for children and adults presented by ASIFA-Colorado, the local Colorado animation non-profit chapter of the international association started in France. I’m a volunteer and board member for ASIFA. We had a great turn out the entire weekend. Our youngest was five years old and our oldest was… well I can’t tell you that.
The films made by the animation artists will be shown next Saturday at noon at the festival. I’m in the process of editing the film right after I finish this post.
There are two things I wanted to mention about this festival that are related to our trends class.
