The third week of our journey starts busy! The group spreads out working on their casestudies. There are visits to Xaquixe, Zegache and some stay working at home.
The group artists from the data graphics workshop that joined forces to make a game for the exhibition heads to Zegache to have a look at the first design that the guys from the talleres have been making. Their piece looks already great and the symbols they made out of wood blocks are already very advanced. The group discusses the design further and gives feedback.
In Xaquixe the glass piece for the bees is being prepared. Everything has to go fast since there is not too much time before the bees go into their hibernation. The glasspiece will be placed on top of the beehive. In this new ‘chamber‘ the bees will then ‘finish’ the piece by working in the glass space.
Ivan the Terrible (Part 1) 1944director: Sergei EisensteinDuring World War II, with the German army approaching Moscow, Eisenstein was one of many Moscow-based filmmakers who were evacuated to Almaty, in the Kazakh SSR. There, Eisenstein first considered the idea of making a film about Tsar Ivan IV, aka Ivan the Terrible, whom Joseph Stalin admired, seeing him as the same kind of brilliant, decisive, successful leader that Stalin aspired to be.The first film, Ivan The Terrible, Part I, was filmed between 1942 and 1944, and released at the end of that year. The film presented Ivan as a national hero, and won Joseph Stalin’s approval (and even a Stalin Prize).Russian Animation Films (Second World War period)
