StopTrik Workshot: Children's animated film workshop with Anka Kočevar
At the workshop with the young Slovenian animator Anka Kočevar, a short animated film with a pre- prepared soundtrack will be made. Simple geometric shapes of different colours will be animated with the technique of painting on glass. Young animators will bring to life the characters who will jump, ride the train, cough and laugh, coordinating with the rhythm of the soundtrack.
Anka Kočevar graduated in painting at the Ljubljana Academy of Fine Arts in 2009. She is the author of three short cartoons that have been presented at domestic and foreign film festivals. She creates book illustrations for children and comics. In animated film workshops, she educates the youngest audiences. She is a representative of a generation that is increasingly being undermined by the existing economic and political system, so she protests, also by artistic means. She was the lead animator in the animation A Thousand Hours of Bitterness for a Single Hour of Joy (2018) and the lead animator and art designer of Mr. Philodendron and the Apple Tree (2017).
