ASIFA-ATLANTA Georgia Animation Tour - Phase 1!

ASIFA-Atlanta aims transport our unique screenings,  workshops, and creative professionals to students and  conferences outside Atlanta's city center.

Why Tour?

Since we built our workshops in 2011, we have received numerous requests to expand to after-school programs, museums, libraries and technical schools.  ASIFA-Atlanta wants to meet this demand by taking our most successful programs on tour: 12 n’ 12, Animation Draw Workshops, along with regional and international screenings.

Why Do We Need Your Help?

For ASIFA-Atlanta, this Tour means expansion. We want to learn more about what emerging animators and educators require to flourish. At least to start, we’d like to build on what we know.  That means taking established programs to new audiences and recording the process and results. To do so, we are asking for your help to launch phase one, setting up shop and fortifying resources.

By June 28th, the date of our first tour stop, we intend to acquire a small office space equipped with two mobile editing stations, develope a website to support participants and to build 5 new animation stands. Your donation will directly contribute to these goals.

Boyson is a dark, spellbinding piece that captures the beautiful relationship between mother and son. My curiosity as a director is in the production of mood and the ambivalence of a resolution. Using reconstructed Jungian archetypes & symbols, the viewer witnesses a reinvention of the body in a corporal, visceral experience.

The essence of the work relies on how the viewer interprets his or her own discovery. By struggling to put together what the symbols mean, do we get frustrated and angry or accept the notion, that life is essentially a mystery?

From my perspective, it is necessary to understand the complex symbol of the nurturer. Through her guidance, I have learned when to regain confidence and stand up with my own legs.

Local Animation at it's best
