These aren’t your grandma’s Looney Tunes!

Join us for a student-curated program of experimental, animated short films! This eclectic mix of shorts explores motion, materiality, and abstraction through stop-motion, direct manipulation of 16mm film, and hand-drawn animation. Included are the works of Stan VanDerBeek, Jodie Mack, and Pat O'Neill. Any-mation was curated by Cinéseries members Corinne Niaura, Kayla Chen, Mel Ramp, Sofia Mastorakis, and Stephanie Griffin. (program approx. 90 mins., digital video and 16mm)

About the series

In the words of Cinéseries’ members: Cinéseries is a student-led group that organizes monthly screenings in collaboration with the Wexner Center for the Arts. We aim to offer a space for students and the community to engage with film and expanded cinema from makers of a variety of backgrounds. We aspire to create an environment conducive to critical engagement by inviting filmmakers to showcase work that takes risks, challenges norms, and opens a conversation by devoting to a wide range of artist-centered and independent media.
