About The Secret of Kells
Magic, fantasy and Celtic mythology come together in a riot of color and detail that dazzle the eyes in this sweeping story about the power of imagination and faith to carry humanity through dark times. Young Brendan lives in the Abbey of Kells, a remote medieval outpost under siege from raiding barbarians. One day a celebrated master illuminator arrives from foreign lands, carrying an ancient--but unfinished--book, brimming with secret wisdom and powers. To help complete the magical book, Brendan has to overcome his deepest fears on a dangerous quest that takes him into the enchanted forest where mythical creatures hide. It is here that he meets the faerie Aisling, a mysterious young wolf/girl, who helps him along the way. But with the barbarian hordes closing in, will Brendan's determination and artistic vision illuminate the darkness and show that enlightenment is the best fortification against barbarians?
Running time: 75 minutes

Event Report: Don Hahn's Alchemy of Animation

The panelists and event coordinators gather for a photo after the show. Left to Right: Alexis Block, Nik Ranieri, Don Hahn, Mike Belzer, Danny Young, James Baxter, Michael Woodside and Alex Vassilev.
Last night at Woodbury University a fundraiser was held for the ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archive. Producer Don Hahn hosted a panel discussion and multimedia presentation on the art of animation for a packed house of animation professionals and fans. The event was a great success and enough money was raised to be able to purchase two 1.5 terabyte hard drives for the ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archive. Many thanks to Dori Littell-Herrick and Woodbury University for sponsoring the event, to Don Hahn, Nik Ranieri, Mike Belzer and James Baxter for putting on such an informative show, and to the dedicated crew of volunteers who made sure the whole event ran smoothly.

The Fletcher Jones Foundation Theater was packed to the gills.

Don Hahn (Beauty & the Beast, Lion King) was signing copies of his newly released book "The Alchemy of Animation".

Mike Belzer (Nightmare Before Christmas, Bolt) and Nik Ranieri (Beauty & the Beast, Bolt) sign autographs for the crowd.

Nik and James Baxer (Beauty & the Beast, Enchanted) visit with the crowd.

The volunteers who coordinated the event pose with a copy of Don's book. Left to Right: Danny Young, Alexis Block and Michael Woodside. He's not pictured here, but Alex Vassilev, the Archive's resident tech-guru, handled the technical aspects of the presentation.
A good time was had by all!

Event: An Evening With Andreas Deja Follow-Up



On a big screen, Andreas peppered his talk with sketches, memorabilia and photos from his personal collection, and drew on the overhead projector to illustrate the concepts he was discussing.

After his talk, Andreas generously met with the audience and signed autographs on the great artwork assembled by the Van Eatons. He offered encouragement and advice to the students in the audience, like the contingent from Laguna College of Art and Design pictured above.

Many thanks to Andreas, the folks at the Van Eaton Gallery and the great group of people who came out to support the archive project.
