season to seek i'm very grateful to the academy my mother is also turning ninety soon so i think she'd be very happy tonight. not the ninetieth academy award ceremony european film industry professionals took home gold in five out of twenty four categories. staying with the subjects of film. directed loving vincent the oscar nominated bio pic of vincent fun the film is the worst welds first fully painted feature each and every one of its thousands of frames is an oil painting on canvas using the same technique as fun falk did for his own works and this week. your remarks series we celebrate women who have broken ground in their fields so we met up with a director who has revolutionized animation using the oldest visual medium.

loving vincent brings to life the story of dutch post-impressionist painter vincent van hall in his own pictures it's the first ever feature to animate paintings on canvas. it was polish artist who first came up with the idea. when i saw the paintings i think this is perfect because he painted his life these were the words around him as he saw it that's what's in the paintings was really tempting because i thought if it's amazing to bring the paintings to move in front of you. after it was shot with actors over one hundred painters and get down meticulously recreated each frame by hand to bring this dream to life. and her husband and

co-director led the team that put together this truly unique film. it's like almost like you know putting out the possible because you you've got the paintings and you don't really want to change them too much more you've got the biography you've got the facts from his life and also you've got you know. storytelling like that very important for a film. it took seven years and sixty five thousand individual paintings to create loving vincent disney's first animated feature length films were painted with water colors but using oils in animation is unchartered territory for the film industry. you can bring amazing. depth of emotion. by paying you know lots of you have lots of control. one of the biggest challenges coviello and her team had to overcome was finding sponsors and investors for a movie that was very difficult to imagine lots of people thought we are you know.

calling us names lunatics crazy you know. yeah but mainly because of the concept of finding for friends so the people are so. how it's going to work. passion for van cos painting began of a young age she read the artist's letters when she was fifteen after studying fine art she went on to specialize in animation at the warsaw film school. in twenty eleven she created her first short film little postman from her own oil painting. i felt. it's missing from my life the painting is just and i really felt i would like to. bring it back or close that chapter of my life you know i just felt this is open

and so i thought ok i would be great to combine these two things and to paint a movie so that was a short film idea. loving vincent was first planned as a short film but eventually grew into a ninety minute feature the work might not boast any special effects but it's still unique in the industry d w film critic scott roxboro believes. idea could even mark the birth of a new genre. computer animation so dominates the field now we've gotten used to seeing it to such a degree that we've forgotten what paint looks like almost. and that pack our senses really is really revolutionary i think i hope really that all inspire a new generation of filmmakers to embrace this this really new medium which is of course the oldest media. of visual representation. since it premiered in twenty seventeen the movie has been a major success receiving numerous international it was even nominated for an oscar

and the best animated feature category. it was also a lot for me as a person because really you know it's a first film i mean. it's a push film that's been out of our nominated there's no money women in our new mission industry and until to i'm not account both paul and general prior problem very. thorough took o.b.l. has painted a pioneering portrait of vincent van called her groundbreaking bio epic is at once immersive and it's not a. moral film in our express we start off a round up of what's happening across europe in the french capital. francaise hinesville moments the series awards were handed out this weekend the big winner was one hundred twenty b.p.m. the drama about an aids activist struggle in the early one nine hundred ninety s.
