About the Talk:

Join DARC’s Expanded Practice Artist-in-Residence, Pixie Cram, as she discusses her research into pixilation technique—a stop-motion animation style that brings live actors to life frame by frame. Discover how this unique approach has informed her storytelling and led to the creation of narrative films, including her latest short film, The Pavilion.
