Sending immense gratitude to the wonderful folks who showed up for Queercrow last Sunday! We were thrilled to show these rarities for free this year, and also that so many of you joined us for this celebration of q***r archival footage. This 4th annual collaboration with MIPoPS included such great programming, and we were fortunate enough to sit down and have a discussion with Lisa, who was featured in the film Le***an Impress Card by Ingrid Wilhite. This ongoing project with MiPops has truly been a joy to many, because these digitizations are positively loaded with q***r history that has seldom been seen by the general public. Not only that, so much Seattle history is preserved in many of these shorts and films that Scarecrow houses. Archival footage such as this is so important to preserve and share, and we are so fortunate to have shared this history with you. Thank you ❤️

We are absolutely overjoyed to announce that an incredibly talented crop of animation students from Cornish College of the Arts: Film and
Media chose Scarecrow Video as the topic of their final
project! Every week, we will be sharing these amazing
videos with you. The kids are alright ❤ Elora Brown made this video!

Looking for some ideas this 2-for-1 Wednesday? Here’s a Double Feature suggestion from Amelia:
MIND GAME (2004) and TEKKONKINKREET (2006)
“Mind Game and Tekkonkinkreet are absolutely astonishing pieces of animation. With distinctive styles, insane levels of details, and bizarre yet grounded plots, these two movies really make you think of what can be achieved with real, human artists and they make you tearfully happy to exist in a world where such art exists (and you get to experience it!). These films are beautiful, goofy, emotional, and all around worthwhile watching. If you aren’t really into animated films, these films might convert you into a true believer.”

(That kinda works right?) See the full list of new releases this week on our website or come in and see for yourself! Byeeee

We’ve been asked for YEARS “Why do you put all anime under the umbrella of ‘Manga?’” and it comes down to how a lot of things go with our library— someone made an extremely strong case once upon a time and it stuck. It’s the same reason why the 28 days/weeks/years films are, to the chagrin of some, NOT in the Zombies section. Well, as the section continues to expand, it’s making less and less sense to throw everything in “Manga,” because it’s just not a fact for some films and tv shows. Many ARE based off of manga, but if there’s even one that isn’t, then what’s the point of putting that descriptor on it? Well, NO MORE! It’s ANIME now!! This has been a mammoth of an undertaking for staff, and they’re making quick work of it! (Thanks to Jas for prompting this once and for all)
