Game Industry Focus: Playful Animations
Swiss video games that combine animation art with game design have proven to be highly successful. How do they work together? This year the SGDA will once more explore the intersection between animation and game design. Swiss and international game developers will show what can happen when the two disciplines meet. You get to see it at 14:15 at Kino Sterk 1.
Celebrating 20 Editions
We celebrate our 20 editions until the floor is shaking. We start with the celebration at 10:00 at Trafo 3 with «Juggling with Explosives», where the creators of Fantoche show a best-of of the first Fantoche decade.
Who wants to take a stroll around the city of Baden should come to the Festival Centre at 20:30. We follow the Hamburg-based collective “A Wall is a Screen”, that turns facades and structures around the world into cinema screens. The different stops and the shorts film shown along the way are kept a surprise.
«Fanto… Are You Serious?» starts at 22:45 at Kino Sterk 1. Another throwback to the beginning of Fantoche! Even late at night, this programme is truly refreshing !
Obviously, celebrations need a party! That’s why Royal opens its doors at 21:00! We start with DJ Shullio aka Daniel Šuljić. At 23:00 the A/V show begins, where virtuoso drummer Arthur Hnatek and Sophie LeMeillour explore the boundaries between improvisation and electronic dance music. Then, at midnight, the big anniversary party begins with resident DJ “whitegirlsstudyplaylist”.
