The spread of new animation techniques – like motion capture, which involves tracking the movement of objects and people to create more life-like characters – will also inevitably contribute to the data avalanche. Meanwhile, Lucasfilm has announced that the next generation of Star Wars films will use 48 frames a second rather than 24, signalling a new era for the film industry.

Cuba, 1948. Chico is a young piano player with big dreams. Rita is a beautiful singer with an extraordinary voice. Music and romantic desire unites them, but their journey – in the tradition of the Latin ballad, the bolero – brings heartache and torment. From Havana to New York, Paris, Hollywood and Las Vegas, two passionate individuals battle impossible odds to unite in music and love.

My own contribution to this theme is already underway, and will be called Miyazakitopia. This is a diorama paying tribute to master animator Hayao Miyazaki. The first phase, "Totoro and friends" is already complete, and was unveiled this evening to coincide with the announcement...

Les enfants ont peur du noir, mais beaucoup d’adultes aussi ! L’obscurité empêche de voir, on peut alors se convaincre de la présence de bêtes, d’insectes ou de tous êtres malveillants.

Blutch, Charles Burns, Marie Caillou, Pierre di Sciullo, Jerry Kramsky, Lorenzo Mattotti, Richard McGuire, Michel Pirus, Romain Slocombe, remontant le fil de leurs terreurs, ont accepté d’animer leurs dessins et de leur insuffler avec leur style unique le rythme de leurs cauchemars.
