Lead on, oh Kinky Turtle

Since last September’s Juxtaposition Blogathon was such a smashing success, we’ve decided to give it another go. This time, it’s the Short Animation Blogathon, taking place from April 23-27, 2012, and you’re invited!

To participate, select up to an hour of short animated films, post your list online before April 27, then email a link to p.g.grrr@gmail.com. (And please include a link back here somewhere in the post.) You can write as much or as little about your choices as you want; YouTube clips are welcome but not required; and it’s up to you to decide what constitutes a “short animated film.” They can, for example, be in any medium—hand-drawn, stop-motion, computer-animated, shadow puppets, etc. Above all, use your imagination and have fun! This is a chance to share your animated loves with the world.

If you’re planning to contribute or have any questions, let us know by commenting below or sending us an email. And please spread the word! You’re welcome to use the lovely banners, featuring the Fleischer Bros.’ Grampy and designed by our friend Jacob. (For more of his art, see the Carleton Graphic website.) We’ll start linking to contributions on April 23, right after Pussy Goes Grrr’s third-year anniversary.
