FxF #22, April 25th at Vega Kino!

- We have limited seats for the evening feature film screening as we are collaborating with Vega for it. First come, first served!
- For the Portfolio Review Session: You will have to have a FxF ticket to join this session AND please do not show work on your phones. It is too small to have a realistic feedback talk.

On April 25th, we will start the day with a Portfolio Review Session,
with Rasmus Sivertsen (creative director - Qvisten Animation), Lars Ellingbø (CEO Saurus & VFX artist), Kristian Pedersen (director & motion designer - Mikrofilm).
This is not a recruitment table, but rather an inspiring feedback round.
So, please bring along what you would like to show and join us from 11:00 to 11:50.

A few important notes:
‍- You will have to have a FxF day ticket to join this session. Please either come early to purchase a ticket at Vega (counter opens at 10:30), or buy a ticket online before hand. Online sales have now started here:
https://checkout.ebillett.no/287/events/57484/purchase/setup?kanal=dxf
- Please do not show work on your phones. It is too small to have a realistic feedback talk. Bring your work on an ipad, laptop or even original paper work or prints...
- We will make a queue and split the 50 min based on how many come.

See you at FxF #22, on April 25th at Vega Kino at 11:00!

During Frame by Frame #22, we will hear the great Kristian Pedersen talk about his latest short film Faen i Helvete/Goddammit.
Kristian is an award winning director, known for his visual and graphic play with shape, sound and typography, exploring how text, poetry and feeling can translate to a visual language.
Goddammit, based on the poem by Jan Erik Vold, is a concrete poetry and frustrated typography in dramatic choreography.
