Pitch
The secrets of body work, a tool for animated filmmaking
The link between mime, body play and animated film is obvious. From a mirror next to their table to reference videos in preparation for their shots, animated filmmakers have always looked to their own body for inspiration and to perfect the expressivity of their depictions.
This workshop offers participants a chance to discover the secrets of body work by joining a mime along the fabulous road leading from miming itself, on to video recording and the analysis thereof. They will have two days to leave acting clichés behind, and to enjoy a fresh and different approach to topics such as rhythm, dynamics, emotions and movement.
