London Animation Club is delighted to welcome back stop-motion visionary Joseph Wallace for a screening of his films and a conversation about his influences and his process.

Joseph is a BAFTA Cyrmu-nominated director, writer and producer who works between stop-motion and puppetry, combining mediums to create enticing fantasy worlds inspired by folktales and mythology. His work has won awards, received Vimeo Staff Picks and screened at festivals around the world. His acclaimed music video for Sparks led Wallace to create sequences for Edgar Wright’s documentary feature The Sparks Brothers which premiered at Sundance and Wallace’s segments were described as ‘dark wonders’ by The Guardian’s Mark Kermode. Joseph’s 2022 short Salvation Has No Name won the Grand Prix and Best Director at Animage festival in Brazil, was long-listed for both BIFA and BAFTA and most recently received the Jury Special Mention at the Unifrance Prix du Court Metrage at Cannes 2023.

The programme will include a mix of short films, music videos, commercials and more.
