2018 Short Film Festival
Saturday July 28
2:00pm – 4:00pm
The Bridges Short Film Festival was initiated by Reza Sarhangi in 2010 and has since become an integral part of the conference. The festival presents an annual reel of mathematical short films, videos and animations that have been created for educational, corporate and artistic purposes, or just for fun.
This year's program was juried by Evelyn Lamb, Giulio Rasi, Francesco Mancini and Bianca Violet (chair). The 90-minute program shows 25 selected short films, which represent a variety of styles, from visualizing objects or spaces, mathematical stories and fairytales, art based on mathematical rules, exciting explanations and entertainment, conceptual animations, and more. The Short Film Festival screening will be followed by a Q&A session and discussion with attending film authors. Come ask your questions and learn behind the scenes secrets, mathematical insights, production details and much more. The full program, with links to the films, is available on the Bridges Organization website.
The selected short films will also be shown in the National Museum of Science and Technology during the entire conference.
