Eastern European Animation Award

Med šesto edicijo festivala Animateka v Ljubljani smo organizirali okroglo mizo s predstavniki naslednjih festivalov animiranega filma: Animafest Zagreb (Hrvaška), Animateka Ljubljana (Slovenija), anim'est Bukarešta (Romunija), Balkanima Beograd (Srbija), Banja Luka International Animation Film Festival (Bosna in Hercegovina) in FestAnča Žilina (Slovaška). Cilj okrogle mize je bil postaviti okvir za regionalno sodelovanje, predvsem zaradi izmenjave organizacijskih, kadrovskih in programskih idej. Ena prvih akcij je bila pridružitev projektu Cartoon d'Or, kar je spodbudilo odločitev, da podelimo Eastern European Animation Award. S tem priznanjem želimo nagraditi visokokakovostne vzhodnoevropske animirane filme in jih promovirati v naši regiji, pa tudi v mednarodnem okolju. Vsak festival je nominiral en kratek animirani film iz svoje države. Med 20. Animafestom sta žiriji za veliki izbor in študentski tekmovalni program izbrali hrvaški film Moja pot (Moj put, Svjetlan Junakovič & Veljko Popović), ki se je uvrstil med nominirane za nagrado Cartoon d'or 2010.

During the sixth edition of Animateka festival in Ljubljana, a round table with the representatives of the following animation film festivals was organised: Animafest Zagreb (Croatia), Animateka Ljubljana (Slovenia), anim'est Bucarest (Romania), Balkanima Belgrade (Serbia), Banja Luka International Animation Film Festival (Bosnia and Herzegovina) and FestAnča Žilina (Slovakia). The aim of the round table was to set a frame for a regional collaboration with the purpose to share the organisational, human resources and programme ideas. One of the first concrete actions was to join the Cartoon d'Or project and thus we decided to present the Eastern European Animation Award. The objectives of this award are to recognize Eastern European animation of high quality and to promote it in the region as well as internationally. Each festival nominated one short animated film from its own country. During the 20th edition of Animafest, the Grand and Student Competition juries selected the Croatian film My Way (Moj put, Svjetlan Junakovič & Veljko Popović), which entered the nominations for the Cartoon d'Or 2010 award.

CALF

CALF je neodvisna video založba, ki zastopa dela japonskih filmarjev. V zadnjem času so bili številni neodvisni japonski avtorji zelo dejavni na festivalih po vsem svetu, vendar večine njihovih filmov ni lahko izdati na DVD-jih. Novoustanovljena neodvisna založba CALF je zamišljena kot poskus, da bi se tej situaciji uprli z dostopnostjo japonskih mojstrovin tako na domačih tleh kot drugod svetu.


CALF is an independent DVD label featuring works by Japanese filmmakers. Recently there have been many Japanese independent filmmakers who were playing a very active part in festivals all around the world, but most of their films are not easy to get on DVD's. CALF, a newly established indie label, is an attempt to resist this situation by making their masterpieces available not only in Japan but also all around the world.

MADE IN ITALY

Pregled italijanskega animiranega filma vključuje avtorje visoke ravni in izvirnosti. Predlagani izbor vsebuje živahne in kakovostne, večinoma neodvisne izdelke; nastali so na osnovi natančne umetniške vizije, ki presega uporabljene tehnike animacije. Priložnost smo dali mnogim mlajšim nadobudnim avtorjem, nismo pa mogli mimo ustvarjalca, ki velja za mojstra animacije: to je Gianluigi Toccafondo. S tem izborom želimo premostiti vrzel v distribuciji in vrednotenju kratkih animiranih filmov. Italijanska kultura si v trenutnem težavnem obdobju zasluži ustrezno pozornost.


The panorama of animation in Italy presents authors of high level and originality. The selection that we propose shows vivacity and quality of the productions, mostly independent, realized with precise artistic vision that transcends the animation techniques used. We privileged many young emerging authors, but we couldn’t neglect the presence of an author considered the maestro of animation: Gianluigi Toccafondo. With this collection we wish to fill a gap in the distribution and valorisation of short animated film. In this difficult moment for the Italian culture it merits proper consideration.
