Bradford Animation and Film Festival

BAF takes place each November at the National Media Museum in Bradford, UK. The UK's longest running festival features screentalks, retrospectives, workshops and a competition strand which recognises the very best in new animation from around the world.



On wednesday 9th November I visited BAF.  I saw many animations by students and professionals from the UK and within Europe.  A few of my favourites were 'Brandt Rhapsodie', a French 2D animation about the tragedy of a romantic encounter and 'A Morning Stroll', a 2D/3D animation, Grant Orchard being the director.  I really liked the mix of 2D and 3D in this and the idea behind it.  This animation was also awarded The Best Professional Film.

I had a really enjoyable day and I hope to visit again next year.
