Digital Creatives – Visual FX with Ken Turner

Digital Creatives – Visual FX with Ken Turner December 17th – 7.30pm – 9.30pm. Free

Ken Turner works with spaceships, aliens, angels, falling bombs, helicopters crashing into skyscrapers; all without anyone being hurt in the making of the film. An illustrator at heart Ken has spent the last 15 years leading teams in animation and visual effects mainly for drama on the BBC but also for computer games. His most recent success was creating composite scenes for the BBC production Poldark. He will demonstrate how he uses 3d elements created in 3d software and 2d elements created in Photoshop to create convincing scenes from the 17th Century to sci-fi futures.

This is part of a three week residency at Modern Art Oxford Film Studio project. Running throughout each day we will be presenting a rolling screening programme of films drawn from our archive which will include drama, documentary, dance and experimental, giving you an opportunity to see a raft of film made in Oxford from the 1980’s through to present day. A rolling loop will be projected in the education room, offering an eclectic mix of programming to suit all tastes. In addition there will be individual screens where you will be able to select genre and titles.

In addition to the screening programme we will be holding events and activities showcasing Film Oxford projects.

All screenings and events are open to the public and are free.
