LIAF 2014 Animation Industry Event: Andreas Hykade Animation Masterclass – How to make an Animated Film

September 18, 2014 by LIAF

“When I was Young and Poisoned by the artistic myth, I stumbled from Crisis to Crisis. When I couldn’t stand this anymore, I started to ask myself some basic Questions”. In this masterclass “How to make an Animated Film” Andreas Hykade will present these questions. It will be up to the audience to find the answers.

Award-winning Andreas Hykade will breakdown the art of the animated film with a flipchart, a black pen and the wisdom gained from a prolific and successful career in animation!

We’ll also be screening a Retrospective of Andreas’ work followed by a Q&A on 30 October. As well as Tom & the Slice of Bread with Strawberry Jam and Honey, complete with an introduction by Andreas on 1 November.

He has also created a series of animated films for children, Tom & the slice of bread with strawberry jam & honey (2001 – 2012), also screening at LIAF.

Since 2000, he has been teaching animation at various institutions, such as Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg, Royal College of Art London, Kunsthochschule Kassel and Harvard University. He is the only director to have won the German short film prize three times, and his works have been honoured by retrospectives around the world, at festivals such as Ottawa Festival, Holland Animation Festival and the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

He has also worked with the German band Die Toten Hosen making several video clips, collaborated with British animation artist Ged Haney and has created Zukunftsvisionen, the film installations for the German pavilion at the World Exhibition EXPO 2000.
