With all the movie festivals that have been going on the past few weeks there has been little attention paid to the animation festival currently underway.
Unlike the Toronto Film Festival the Ottawa International Animation Festival isn't geared towards "stars". What it is geared towards are the many, many fine animations produced around the world.
From September 17 - 21, the nation's capital once again becomes the center of the animation universe. The Ottawa International Animation Festival (OIAF) is the largest event of its kind in North America, attracting attendees from around the world. Film buffs, art lovers and cartoon fans won't want to miss the great line up of screenings taking place at the ByTowne Cinema, the National Gallery of Canada, the Canadian Museum of Civilization and the Empire Theatres Rideau Centre.
Little bit of trivia for you ...This is the 20th anniversary of the release Who Framed Roger Rabbit. 326 animators worked full-time on the film. In total, 82,080 frames of animation were drawn.
