SUMMARY:International Competition Program #5: It’s Meta Time – REPEAT
DESCRIPTION:\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\nThe International Competition Programs are the backbone of the entire MIAF mission. Drawn from more than 2,300 submissions they showcase the best, most imaginative animating talent on the planet in a series of programs in which the only rule is diversity. And because it is MIAF’s 25th anniversary, we will kick off each program with a very special “look-back” film from the MIAF vault that highlights a special moment in our history.\n\n\n\nThis screening includes a range of films that in a variety of ways talk about the very process of creating and making animation. Sometimes the glance-through-the-looking-glass focuses on the mechanics of animating while in other cases it’s more about very task of converting a raw idea stuck in the mind into something that can fuel a production.\n\n\n\nAnd please reserve an extra special round of applause for “Rushmore” and “Inferno” who were made by animators who have travelled from France and the Republic of China to share them with us in person.\n\n\n\nMIAF 2025 trailer – International Competition Program #5: It’s Meta Time\n\n\n\nStampfer Dreams – Thomas Renoldner\n\n\n\nStampfer DreamsThomas RenoldnerAustria, 11’50, 2024One of animation’s masters of meta-animation files a homage to scientist Simon Stampfer with a barrage of imagery based on his Optical Magic Discs (1833).\n\n\n\nThe Diffusion Pilot – Aurelijus Ciupas\n\n\n\nThe Diffusion PilotAurelijus CiupasEstonia, 7’12, 2024What can and should animation generated by artificial intelligence based on diffusion models do?
