THE ANIMATION SHOW
Rated NR; Director:Various
Location: Alamo Downtown
THE WORLD PREMIERE OF THE ALL-NEW ANIMATION SHOW!!!
Legendary animators PES and Joel Trussell live in person! Plus a live set by DJ Manny!!!
The Animation Show is back with an all new collection of incredible independent
animation. This year, Austin's own Mike Judge has gathered together over two dozen of his favorite funny short films from around the world. It's a groundbreaking program of eye-popping adult animation from tomorrow's next great animators!
In the early 1990's a new batch of animation legends appeared on the scene.
The work of Nick Park (WALLACE AND GROMIT), John Lasseter (Pixar), Craig
McCracken (POWER PUFF GIRLS), John K (REN & STIMPY) and Mike Judge (BEAVIS AND BUTTHEAD) first debuted in touring arthouse programs. These artists
went on to change the way we look at animation. The Animation Show's new
collection launches the start of the next great animation revolution!
The Alamo at the Ritz is proud to be the first to theatrically share the work of Steve Dildarian (New HBO series THE LIFE AND TIMES OF TIM debuting in June),
Dave Carter (PSYCHO TOWN shorts are an international sensation), and Smith
& Foulkes (award winning commercial spots for Coke and Motorola, premiering
their new short THIS WAY UP). We are also excited to feature a collection
of films never seen in the US from the prestigious French animation college
Gobelins, and other new favorites from Joel Trussel (check out his video
for WAR PHOTOGRAPHER for a taste of Joel's animation awesomeness). Also
returning this year are animation greats Bill Plympton and PES with a few
other special guests to be announced soon!
