Early Japanese Animation + live accompaniment

This event has finished Took place on: Sunday, 9th Jun 2019

 £13.10

A selection of rarely screened early Japanese animation, showing some of the very first anime films, will be accompanied by electronic music on our biggest screen.

Very few of the earliest animated films from Japan survive - after being screened alongside live action features, films were often sold on from cinemas to smaller mobile venues where they would be broken down and sold as single frames.

The films that have been preserved in archives offer a fascinating glimpse into the beginnings of a rich history of Japanese animation which continues to this day. We here present a compilation of these very early anime films with live musical accompaniment by composers and musicians of the Guildhall’s Electronic Music Studio.
