UpLift is an international film festival, organised by students at the Department of Literature, Film and Theatre Studies (LiFTS) at University of Essex. The festival screens film work and hosts additional activities that focus on particular themes or filmmaking modes. In its second edition the festival explores the animation mode of filmmaking. This year UpLift aims to:
• Create a space to nurture Animation within the film industry and give it the attention it deserves (showing them that it’s worth carrying on trying as well as breaking any stigma attached to it).
• Educate the general public on Animation, showing them the development process of Animation, while encouraging their own creativity.
• Create a space for new animators to network and find new collaborators who are at a similar early level to them.
During the festival, apart from screenings, there will be workshops and talks with students and film industry professionals, networking events, closing party as well as an awards ceremony.
