An Evening with Animator Paul Vester July 15, 2009
NWFC AND PNCA PRESENT: AN EVENING WITH PAUL VESTER A pioneer in the field, British animator Paul Vester has been primarily concerned with the language of animation. Vester combines different media and techniques to create personal work that is both eclectic and referential, while producing commercial projects of astonishing range. He is the co-director of the experimental animation program at the California Institute of the Arts, and was a recipient of the Guggenheim Fellowship, among many other awards and honors. Tonight he will screen and discuss some of his key films, including SUNBEAM (1980), PICNIC (1987), ABDUCTEES (1995), and IN THE WOODS (2008), as well as a wide-ranging selection of his television commercials and work produced for television programs. ( 90 min ) Presented in conjunction with the Pacific Northwest College of Art’s Boundary Crossings: An Institute in Contemporary Animated Arts. TIME: 7 to 9pm MORE INFO: http://www.nwfilm.org/screenings/20/202/#1339

Boundary Crossings July 13, 2009
PNCA presents Boundary Crossings: An Institute in Contemporary Animated Arts from July 13 - 24, 2009. "With the advent of digital technologies, the appearance of hybrid moving images has emerged as the norm, affecting boundaries between live action, animation, image processing, and compositing as porous as the platforms of display that host them. Through re-defining animation and the manipulated image, animated art forms are being pushed beyond the movies to permeate our cultural landscape." The Institute is a series of private workshops and public lectures and screenings featuring instructors from the PNCA Intermedia department. It will begin with a public opening in PNCA's Feldman gallery of animated installation work by Jessica Mein, Daniela Repas (with Todd Tawd and Thornton C. Wilson), and Marina Zurkow. Public opening reception • 6-8pm • July 13 Pacific Northwest College of the Arts • 1241 NW Johnson • 503.226.4391

It's time for an ASIFA social! April 4, 2008
As the winter slowly leaves us, it's time to show our faces again and share stories about how much work we've completed, inspiration we've found and versions of software we've installed.
When: Friday, April 4th, 2008
Where: The Lucky Lab at 1945 NW Quimby in Portland, OR
Time: 6pm until whenever
Why: Because it's been too long and we have lots to discuss, like membership, where to host the Melbourne Int'l. Australian Animation festival...
But Wait, There's More! We will also have our own ASIFA Portland t-shirts available to buy. They are cool, hip and elevate you above the masses.
We'll send out a reminder to members and guests soon, but go ahead and mark the date now. Get back into the animation scene in Portland and see what everyone else is doing!
See you all soon!
