VAF Culture

VAF Cultue represents a concerted effort to create high level cultural engagement through a number of interfaces and frameworks, including a wide range of public talks with artists, technicians, and cooperation partners involved in work with TAW and exhibited during the festival. Christen Bach presented a talk about "mindset": How do we think when we create? This talk touched on how you embrace the fear of failure, perform high quality work on a budget, and how you deal with the creative process in a commercial industry. Animation Director Nikita Diakur introduced his work and spoke about the process of the development and execution of the 3D-film made for the festival. Anca Damian, director of Marona, which was nominated for the VAF Best Feature Award gave a presentation of the film with a period of Questions and answers to follow. Alexis Hunot spoke about animation-activism focused on his activities including "Dream Bubble radio", CNC, and PIAFF Festival. The Culture program also included a break out panel presentation centered on the ANIDOX:VR initiative, which saw the finalists for the ANIDOX VR award present the case behind their partnership, development, and execution of he award winning VR piece.
