Stage Fright / LOOP Videoart festival / Barcelona

We forget to announce about 90% of the festivals where our graduation animations have been shown the past year.

Anyway...

Stage Fright is screened at LOOP videoart festival in Barcelona.
You can see it everyday at Duduá gallery/shop, owned by the very best Alícia Rossello. The festival seems real nice, videos are screened around the city in more than 100 venues, galleries, museums, shops...

Picturing this happening makes me miss Barcelona a lot.. .. sigh.

Illustration for Tulva / Elina Minn

Tulva

Tulva

I made these illustrations for the current issue of feminist mag Tulva. It's so nice to illustrate a magazine with such a nice crisp layout.

Chalk animation

Firekites - AUTUMN STORY - chalk animation from Lucinda Schreiber on Vimeo.


Hmmm. I can't say I like it that much but it feels like a relevant video to post about.

Easily comparable to Blu, the most referenced animation phenomena of 2008, but still very different. This is like Blu minus the social dimension. More turning into itself with the music emphasizing the melancholy. The traces of chalk on the board are nice but watching it I can't help wishing it would get more abstract all the time and extend itself beyond the chain of chalkboards.

What do you think?
