Submissions Begin for MAPA Animation Celebration!

Welcome to Corporate City, Courtesy Trent Coffin

Some Kansas City animators will soon see their short films on the largest screen in the state of Kansas!  The Midwest Association of Professional Animators (MAPA) is proud to propose a joint partnership with CinemaKC and 41 Action News in bringing the Midwest its first and only "Animation Celebration" on Saturday, Sept. 8, 2012. It will be held at the Boulevard Drive-in, 1051 Merriam Lane, Kansas City, KS 66103.

MAPA proudly announces our first submissions.  From Trent Coffin, "Welcome to Corporate City."  We also will see work from animator Dan Wood who also works as an Associate at Populous.  We will take a look inside the CAPS program at Blue Valley North, a peek at the motion designers of the future working at KCAI and at Johnson County Community College and much more.

Individual artists will present their works safely beneath the Boulevard's lastest addition!  A 1000 sq. ft. stage area protected from those incidental rains.

More Announcements to Come!!
