One Bum Cinema Crowdfunder - Help get The Bum to Berlin!

Our little cinema has been invited to Europe's largest animation festival Pictoplasma.

This is a great opportunity for our project... but we need some help to get there! 

You can donate to our Crowdfunder HERE by 9th Feb, or alternatively make a donation below. Thank you so much!

What is the One Bum and what do we do?

One Bum Cinema Club is a tiny shed-like structure with a single cinema seat, a projector and a changing programme of showreels featuring both established and emerging animators from around the world. 

On the one hand it’s a very simple concept and a bit of fun.

On the other hand it’s an immersive experience for the visitor, as well as a platform for animators to showcase work that would otherwise go unseen by the general public. 

We love to appear in public spaces, providing chances for regular people to discover animation in unexpected places such as local libraries, taprooms, clothing stores, art centres and galleries. And visiting us is always free!

Why do we want to go to Berlin?

Pictoplasma is Europe's largest animation festival and a huge opportunity for our little cinema to be discovered by the industry. It also means we can take work there by artists that haven't yet had the opportunity to show their work at the festival, giving them a chance to be discovered too. 

What do we need to raise money for?

Well, we need to hire a van, book a ferry, pay for fuel and find some accommodation for the week-long festival. If we do make it there, we will use this opportunity to help raise our profile as a platform for animators at future events.
