An evening with the animator, educator and historian:
One of the people I respect the most in animation is John Canemaker. Here is your chance to meet him and see his new short animation.Join us for a special evening with internationally recognized animator and animation historian John Canemaker.
Canemaker is a professor and director of the animation program at New York University Tisch School of the Arts. His projects have won an Academy Award, Emmy Awards, Ace Award, and Peabody Award. His independent animated shorts are in the Museum of Modern Art permanent collection. He is the author of ten books on animation history (including Disney's NINE OLD MEN and WINSOR McCAY: HIS LIFE & ART) and is a writer on animation for the New York Times.
We will be screening Canemaker's latest film, THE MOON AND THE SON (a possible Oscar nomineee) and we will discuss his career in animation with rare clips from animated films hat have inspired him and his career. Jerry Beck will moderate the Q & A.
