Venue
AnimfxNZ 09 will be held at two of Wellington's finest venues - Te Papa and the Museum Hotel. Thursday's Master Classes and Saturday's workshops will be held at the Museum Hotel, and Friday's keynote sessions will be at Te Papa.
Te Papa
Experience all of New Zealand in one building. Te Papa, New Zealand's innovative and interactive national museum, is set in a breathtaking location on Wellington's beautiful waterfront. The Museum has attracted over 16 million visitors since opening in 1998 and has established itself as a 'must see' on any visitor's itinerary.
Explore the great treasures and stories of this country - its unique natural environment, Mäori culture and taonga (treasures), art heritage and fascinating history. With a combination of the latest technology and classic story telling, Te Papa educates, entertains and inspires.
Experience an exquisitely carved marae, walk through living native bush and be shaken in the Earthquake House. Get hands-on in Discovery Centres, then come face to face with a colossal squid and explore its life through 3-D animation. Venture into Our Space, a multimedia adventure and adrenalin-filled motion simulator ride. This is serious fun! Come. Explore. Enjoy!
