Dublin WorldCon 2019

August 18, 2019 @ 2:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Planned a trip to Ireland, then discovered we will be there for Dublin WorldCon – now I will be a Panelist!   https://dublin2019.com/whos-coming/programme-participants/

Lots of awesome Panelists:

The Golden Age of Animated SF

Format: Panel
18 Aug 2019, Sunday 14:00 – 15:00, Liffey Room-1 (CCD)

We are in a Golden Age of Animation. Animated form and content have been pushed in ambitious ways, both through storytelling and technology. in film (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse), TV (Avatar: The Last Airbender) and streaming services (Love, Death & Robots), but few have received recognition. We discuss what titles are doing well, how animation (both traditional and CGI) and live-action have influenced each other, and what fans should look out for.

Benjamin Rosenbaum, Michelle Coleman (University of Nottingham), Celine Kiernan, Charles Vess (Green Man Press), Edward Kramer (Wizards of Hollywood Productions)

 

Tales from the World of Special Effects

Format: Talk
18 Aug 2019, Sunday 19:00 – 19:50, Liffey Room-2 (CCD)

Duct tape, baling wire and rubber cement. What new tales of special effect derring-do can our panelists tell, especially in the age of digital special effects?

Gregory Norman Bossert, Norman Cates (Weta Digital / CoNZealand), Fred Gambino, Edward Kramer (Wizards of Hollywood Productions)
