The Melbourne International Animation Festival's
technique focus this year is Direct to
Film/Scratch Animation, and our special guest Steven
Woloshen (Canada) has been more than amazing by creating our
trailer - all in the name of celebrating 10 big years of MIAF
animation goodness. Oh yeah! Steven will introduce the
technique focus program which he curated with MIAF Director
Malcom Turner. It will showcase historical and contemporary films
by the incredible filmmakers who have over time used this painstaking
method to make uniquely engaging works.
