Zagreb Film’s activities include the production of animated, documentary and experimental films, the distribution of its own films and those of other producers, the organization of educational programs such as the Small School of Cartoon Film and the International Workshop of Animated Film, the organization of the House of Croatian Film, the management of the Stop-Animation Studio, co-production cooperation with other production houses in the production of animated, documentary and experimental films, cooperation with the Department of Animated Film and New Media of the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb in the production and distribution of graduate films and the sale of educational content for primary and secondary schools.<\/p>\n
The institution systematically approached the plan to preserve the film archive: the plan is, namely, to digitize the entire Zagreb film archive and bring the quality of the content closer to viewers. The original negatives of all films are kept in the Croatian State Archives. The employees of the Croatian State Archives actively participate in the restoration, i.e. supervise the implementation and quality of the procedure, and Zagreb Film then supplies the HDA with new material for preservation in new digital formats. The restoration process of the rich archive of Zagreb film has been going on for nine years, and the restoration of all important films of the Zagreb Cartoon School and numerous high-quality documentaries is planned. Restored films are often shown on television or in special programs at international festivals around the world. The project is systematically supported by the City of Zagreb and the Croatian Audiovisual Center.<\/p>\n

The International Animated Film Workshop was created in 2010 in order to enable younger authors to train with the world’s greatest masters of animated film, who in turn would get to know the potential of Croatian animators. The workshop was held on the island of Rab for four years, and the past three workshops were held in Komi\u017ea on the island of Vis. The workshop has been led by distinguished lecturers: in 2016 Ed Hooks (acting for animators), in 2015 Aleksej Aleksejev (character design), in 2014 Tim Allen and Ivana Bo\u0161njak (stop motion movement and animation), in 2013 Tim Allen and Ivana Bo\u0161njak ( stop-animation, model making), 2012 Aleksej Alekseyev (development of pilot for TV series), 2011 Phil Mulloy and Vera Neubauer (script development) and 2010 Olga and Priit P\u00e4rn (production of shooting book). The workshops were well received by participants and lecturers, which speaks in favor of this form of education. Such knowledge is precisely necessary for our young authors. Since 2016, the workshop has been open to professionals, young professionals and students of art academies, primarily from the Department of Animated Film at ALU.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Zagreb movie today Zagreb Film’s activities include the production of animated, documentary and experimental films, the distribution of its own films and those of other producers, the organization of educational …","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":4,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-432","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
