Roll Yer Own Re-showing and Blowin' Smoke

By popular demand, we've booked the Five Spot again for a re-showing of "Roll Yer Own"! June 25th, 8pm, Five Spot, free!



And on July 14th at the Five Spot also for free we have "Blowin' Smoke"which will showcase Atlanta-produced commerical animation! This is an awesome opportunity to see what kinds of great animation local studios create and also meet the artists who make cartoons for a living. If you're looking for a job in animation, it might also be helpful!

Awesome flyer by John Cason:



We're currently seeking entries for this event; any animation that was done for money is fair game!

Submissions should be sent on DVD to:

ASIFA-Atlanta
410 Candler Park Dr #B3
Atlanta, GA 30307

"Roll Yer Own" Re-Showing
June 25th at the Five Spot, 8pm, free! Come see independent Atlanta animation!





This is ASIFA-Atlanta's yearly showcase of local independent animation!

This is a re-showing of the same great independent animation from Atlanta that we showed on Memorial Day- a lot of people missed out because of the holiday (although the Five Spot was packed!!), so we're showing it again for more folks to see :)

The best films of the night will be sent all over the world as a part of the International Animation Day DVD exchange.
