Geelong will
experience a touch of Hollywood glamour when the City welcomes Oscar-winning
animator Adam Elliot to the National Wool Museum.
Elliot, one of
Australia’s most celebrated stop-motion animators, will present ‘Little Blobs
of Clay’ at the National Wool Museum as part of the 2019 Digital Innovation
Festival.
The festival is
a state government initiative to develop, demonstrate and promote technology
innovation across every sector of the economy and society.
Through
creativity, big dreams and sheer hard work, Elliot took on the giants at
Disney, Pixar and Fox to win an Academy Award for his clay-animation Harvie Krumpet.
His six short
films have been viewed by millions of people, earning him international
recognition as a master storyteller.
Ahead of the
release of his next film in 2022, Elliot will share his insights into the
ground-breaking technology and innovations that are transforming the animation
industry.
The event,
supported by the Victorian Government Regional Development Connecting
Communities Program, will be held on Tuesday 27 August from 6pm.
