LILA in 2015
We had our annual member meeting a few days ago. The report is only available in French right now. We will provide a summed-up translation in English in a few days.

We announced a few days ago that we'll be at Libre Graphics Meeting 2015. For people who don't really know about it, here a small pitch:
LGM is the main event for many Free and Open Source Software related to graphics, allowing contributors and users from all kind of projects to meet physically. From font creation, to painting, photo manipulation, video and animation film, if it is "graphics-related", it has its place there. Therefore it is a major event allowing graphics Free Software to improve dramatically.
And it is even free of charge to attend! So if you happen to be in Toronto or closeby sometimes between April 29 and May 2, why not have a look at the University of Toronto where LGM takes place and go to some of the conferences, workshops and meetings, whether you are a professional or just interested on the topic.
Also if you wish to support the organization of this Libre Graphics Meetings, we highly encourage everyone to help the event being fully funded by clicking on the below link.
The "ZeMarmot" Open Movie by Aryeom Han will be presented at the Libre Graphics Meeting 2015, in Toronto, from April 29 to May 2.
Our current plan is to start a crowdfunding from this time. A teaser movie is being made for this presentation. Stay tuned!
We welcomed a few young people these winter holidays. Here are 2 nices resulting videos. The first one was made by a 8 year-old boy, who directed this small toy-and-clay animation (the small dragons being made in clay), in just 1h30.
As for Laura, 12 year-old, she expressed her interest for cats with this drawn animation on paper, with a light box, a much traditional animation technics, but still very interesting and complex, in particular when discovered at a young age. But she still managed quite well!
If you are into learning animation technics or other creative technics, for your kids or yourself, get in touch with us! We are in Paris, France.
The LILA association organize a workshop of clay animation film creation (if you never saw a clay animation movie, we advise to have a look at Wallace et Gromit) for young kids, from 7 to 9 year old, on Wednesday 25 February 2015, from 10h30 AM to 12h. The workshop takes place, as usual, at 31, avenue Parmentier, Paris 11 (métro Saint Ambroise).
As usual, for this age range, the animation film is created only with traditional and manual methods, i.e. working with clay… See here an example of animation films created with 7 year olds (none of these were using clay though).
We will host maximum 5 kids.
If you are interested, we propose you to get in touch by email or phone at 01 82 07 74 37.
P.S.: languages known by our animators: French, English, Japanese, Korean…
