…for Students and Indies
Friday, May 8, 7:00 pm
McBean Auditorium, Exploratorium, S.F.

We’ll be showing student, and independent films, including work by

Don Albrecht, a former Disney animator, who will have another outrageous surprise. Jett Atwood’s Tea for Two. Based on a pencil test made at Sheridan College, he finished this film on his own a year and a half later.

Signe Baumane’s Birth, is a powerful emotional work about one woman’s experience. Charlie Canfield is bringing excerpts of his animation for the Emmy nominated A Span in Time. (The award ceremony is May 9—Good luck Charlie!)

Gene Hamm will delight us with Chinese Medicine, Puncture Perfect (made for his comedy act) and his disturbing The Truth About Cut Flowers? Plus, a real surprise by Michael Langan (I think you will be quite impressed.)

San Francisco State’s Animation program is presenting student music synch projects, Plus lots of other surprises including work from SF State, San Jose State and De Anza. The show is always a lot of fun and well attended, so arrive early for a good seat.

Okay, it’s not a contest, but an opportunity to screen your student or indie work (or work in progress).  Last minute entries are welcome. The Exploratorium can show DVDs, 16mm and even VHS tapes.
