Special offer code: LSU6
Included in the discount are tickets to several special screenings, the Princess Ball, and the VIP Dinner Award Ceremony:
• A fairytale afternoon of glittering magic and whimsy, the Princess Ball invites families to the Baton Rouge Old State Capitol, Nov. 7, 3-5 p.m., dressed as princesses (or princes) from stories, games, and cultures of their choosing, from this planet or others. Miss LSU USA and Miss Louisiana USA are scheduled to attend. Bring your cameras!
• “Waking Sleeping Beauty” is an unprecedented eye-opening look at the conflict, drama and tension that ushered in the second chapter of Disney’s animation legacy – a decade of unparalleled creativity that included “The Little Mermaid,” “Beauty and the Beast” and “The Lion King.” Producer Connie Nortanis Thompson will be in attendance to screen the film and discuss. This film will be shown Thursday, Nov. 11, at 6:30 p.m. at United Artists Citiplace 11 Theatre, 2610 Citiplace Court.
• “Howl,” a film exploring the Alan Ginsberg Obscenity trial in 1957, covers the public controversy that brought the beat generation to nation-wide attention. The poem that caused the stir appears as an animated sequence throughout the film. Co-directors Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Freidman’s film relies on Erik Drooker’s graphic novel adaptation of the story of the poem and the obscenity trial for inspiration. Epstein and Freidman won an Oscar in 1998 for their documentary: “Common Threads: Stories from the Quilt,” about the AIDS memorial quilt. The film will be presented Thursday, Nov. 11, 8:30 p.m. at the Manship Theatre, Shaw Center for the Arts.
• A new sci-fi feature titled “Legends of Nethia” will have a sneak preview with star Robert Picardo as part of Red Stick’s new addition FANDEMONIUM Comic-Con. The film will be shown Friday, Nov. 12, at 8 p.m. at the Manship Theatre, Shaw Center for the Arts.
• "Tangled," a very special pre-release screening of Disney's new animated film. The long-haired Princess Rapunzel has spent her entire life in a tower, but when she falls in love with a bandit who was passing by, she must venture into the outside world for the first time to find him. The film will be presented on Wednesday, Nov. 10, 7:00 p.m. at Rave Motion Pictures Mall of Louisiana. Clayton Kaytis, animation supervisor for Disney, will be in attendance for a Q&A before the screening.
• The VIP Dinner and Awards Presentation Fundraiser offers you the opportunity to meet and mingle with the animators, filmmakers, producers, and other studio representatives who will be speaking at the Red Stick Festival. The festival will present its third annual Red Stick Lifetime Career Achievement Award to Pres Romanillos (posthumous) in addition to presenting the second international Sci-An Award for Excellence in Scientific Animation. Discount applies to individual seats. The dinner will be held on Nov. 12, 8:00 p.m. at the Hilton Baton Rouge Capitol Center Ballroom (cocktail attire please).
LSU’s Center for Computation & Technology sponsors the Red Stick International Animation Festival in partnership with the East Baton Rouge Parish Mayor-President’s Office, Louisiana Technology Park, Baton Rouge Area Chamber and Baton Rouge Area Digital Industries Consortium.
