SUMMARY:"Searching for the Origami Unicorn": The Matrix and Transmedia Storytelling
DESCRIPTION:Does The Matrix phenomenon represent the future of entertainment? If so\, what will it look like? Drawing on research from his new book\, Comparative Media Studies Professor Henry Jenkins offers his insights into the films\, the video games\, the comics\, and the anime as embodying some significant trends in American popular culture\, including media convergence\, transmedia storytelling\, and globalization. Following his lecture\, we will screen The Animatrix\, a unique collaboration between a western media franchise and Asian animators.

SUMMARY:LineStorm Animation Exploration
DESCRIPTION:Be a worthy contributor to animation\, the world’s newest artform! We’ll review some short\, world-famous animations\, then approach the artform the old-fashioned way\, creating hand-drawn artwork on lightboxes\, scanning it into the computer for looping\, sound-sync and final edit. We’ll use dynamic\, energetic typography to illustrate one or two essential maxims (in ten words or less\, yet to be chosen!)\, then add color and organic line to give them an unforgettable visual boost! Our finished piece\, 2 to 3 minutes long\, will screen at the Made-at-MIT Spectacular in May. Limit: 12. Presented by Pell Osborn\, award-winning animator\, designer\, and teacher.
