But why should Bucks animators watch mime? Because mime is the basis of great animation. If you can tell a story without words or dialogue, then you have the makings of a great piece of animation. Our animators at Bucks have to master the art of body language and facial expressions long before they learn the dark arts of lipsync and dialogue.
Attending the London Mime Festival is highly recommended for all our animation students.
What's this all about?
The LIMF is one of the UK’s longest established international theatre festivals, and takes place in venues across the city.
Where and when?
9 January - 4 February 2017. For specific event details, see their website.
What's on?
All kinds of stuff. There’s surrealist Greek glam live art, manga-inspired drama from Italy, and extraordinary object theatre exploring neuroscience, exile, arson and the Shakespeare authorship debate.
