Guest artist and independent film director Terry Izumi will lead a discussion on film animation at IPFW on Wednesday (Sept.15) from 6-8 p.m. in Neff Recital Hall, Room 101.
Co-founder of Nueart Pictures, Izumi will share his experiences and insights on independent animation endeavors, as compared to working with large animation houses. In addition to his independent projects, Izumi has worked for Disney Studios and DreamWorks. The lecture/presentation is free and open to the public.
Izumi most recently produced the computer-animated feature, AeroTroopers, in 2001.
AeroTroopers, a feature-length fantasy-adventure, takes place in a world beyond imagination, where a dark force attacks a floating society. Only the AeroTroopers can save the day. Actor Mark Hamill is featured as the voice of Joshua, an orphan, who is rescued and taken in by the AeroTroopers.
