Singapore’s Animation Nation is back again this year with an eclectic treat of tasty animated feature films and shorts, some highlights include Bill Plympton’s Idiots and Angels, Studio 4C’s Genius Party, Oshii Mamoru’s Tachigui, and many more. There’s also 2 seminars, presented by Morita Shuhei, ( director of Freedom Project ) and Yamamura Koji, who bought us the Oscar nominated shory Atamayama ( Mountain Head ).
With limited screenings for most films tickets are sure to sell out real fast, so grab yours before they’re gone.
(below) For those who are planning to catch Freedom Project ( Yay ! Morita-san will be present after the screening for a Q&A session. ), let’s see if you can spot this scene in epsiode seven – Find out how Bishan ended up in Freedom in this older post.
For more details on the screenings, schedules and ticket bookings visit the Animation Nation 2008 website. Also check out One’s post for tons of information on the programs.

I got tickets to Genius Party and another one – but sad to say have to give Freedom Project a pass since there’s another big event in November I’m aiming at… if it wasn’t for blogs like yours and 0ne’s I wouldn’t have known of Animation Nation last year! 😉 Thanks.
