Presented in English / Conférence en anglais
Joignez-vous à nous le 24 novembre au studio Alter Ego à Toronto pour entendre le coloriste Eric Whipp. Il nous parlera de son processus créatif au moment de travailler sur Three Thousand Years of Longing, processus qui s’est déroulé alors qu’Eric se trouvait à Toronto et que le réalisateur, George Miller, était en Australie.
La biographie suivante est uniquement rédigée dans la langue de présentation.
Eric Whipp
Starting his career in the mid 1990s, colourist Eric Whipp now specialises in feature films and commercials, is co-founder and senior colourist at Alter Ego VFX and colour studio in Toronto.
In 2007 he worked with George Miller for the first time on the Academy Award winning movie HAPPY FEET and joined him again in 2014 for MAD MAX: FURY ROAD. His latest project was yet another collaboration with George Miller ? the new film THREE THOUSAND YEARS OF LONGING. Its familiar story follows a lonely academic on a trip to Istanbul. She discovers a djinn, or genie, who offers her three wishes in exchange for his freedom.

Ce documentaire inspirant et élégant explore l’héritage et la marque laissée par une femme trans à partir des années 1960.
