Hello everyone
Though the schedule and panel details will be confirmed later on, in the interest of helping people plan travel, I can tell you a little about the conference schedule.
Registration will start on Friday 9th at 8-9am with the conference starting just after.
Each day will run approx 9-6 (with some variations). The conference will end on Sunday 11th at 6pm.
Registration will also be available on Saturday morning (late arriving delegates can still register throughout but there wont be a dedicated table for the whole weekend).
There will be a surprise event early Friday evening and a conference party (catered) on Saturday night. Football fans dont worry, you will be able to watch the World Cup runners up game from the party venue on Saturday, and we will be finished with plenty of time before the final.
If anyone has any questions please mail me at animationevolution@animationstudies.org
I'll be posting travel information soon.

Hi everyone
Another update re the submissions. I've had a few emails asking when people can expect to hear back. In the original call for papers we said we'd get decisions returned by the 8th of February. Despite having a far larger number of submissions than expected, the review panel is on track to meet this date. So please bear with us as we work through the review process.
Best wishes

New Banner Launch
on Friday, 20 November 2009
Labels:
ECA,
student animation
At the start of the new term Edinburgh College of Art’s third year students were asked to design a logo and animated banner for the conference, the best of which would be used here on the website. The students all worked really hard on the project coming up with a really fantastic range of ideas. It was really tough choosing the final shortlist and eventually the winner, which you can see above.
The animation was designed and created by Sarah Keeling, a Cheshire native who has been in Edinburgh attending ECA for the last couple of years. While she mainly works in traditional “handmade” animation, she has been developing a variety of techniques over her last few projects, which can be seen here: www.sarahkeeling.com
The Society for Animation Studies would like to congratulate Sarah on her successful design and thank all the staff and students in the animation department at ECA for all their hard work.
