Moreover, the famous Studio Ghibli liked the film so much that they, for the first time in their history, offered collaboration to the foreign filmmaker. The effect of this cooperation was the first full-lenght animated film in de Wit's career \u2013 \u201cThe Red Turtle\u201d (2016).<\/p>\n

Georges Schwizgebel <\/strong><\/p>\n

Our third guest will be Georges Schwizgebel from Switzerland. Georges Schwizgebel is among the biggest names in contemporary animation. This well-rounded author of 18 short films has seen his works pick up prizes at Cannes, Annecy, Zagreb, Hiroshima, Stuttgart, Ottawa and Espinho. Two of his films, \u201c78 R.P.M.\u201d (1985) and \u201cThe Ride to the Abyss\u201d (1992), rank among the hundred most influential animated films on a list published by the Festival d\u2019Annecy in 2006.<\/p>\n

\"schwizgebel1\"<\/p>\n

Though he first used rotoscoping (\u201cPerspectives\u201d, 1975: \u201cOff-side\u201d, <\/em>1977), Schwizgebel later traded in this tool for a freer approach marked by the gestural application of colour and the frequent use of geometric shapes (\u201cFugue\u201d, <\/em>1998; \u201cThe Young Girl and the Clouds\u201d,<\/em> 2000). His last film \u201cErlking\u201d (2015) won the last year's edition of ANIMA Competition at Etiuda&Anima.<\/p>\n

The meeting with Georges Schwizgebel will be highlighted by the screenings of his films, i. a.: \u201cErlking\u201d, \u201cRomance\u201d, \u201cRetouches\u201d, \u201cThe Subject of the Picture\u201d, \u201cThe Ride to the Abyss\u201d.<\/p>\n
