Miss Remarkable and her Career(Fröken Märkvärdig & Karriären) will be making it premier at the Annecy International Animation Festival 2010 7th – 12th June. And we are looking forward to the visit to the sun and french based cinema. Myself, Michael and two animators on the film, Donal Mangan and Fergal Brennan will be making the trip south.
We have been rather quiet on the blog of late, with one good reason, a tv project we have been working on since December 2009. But the time has come to pay homage to the small tight crew that have done all has been asked of them. Although you can not tell by their faces the crew pictured above are responsible for producing 12 mins of animation every single week. A great achievement deserving of some silverware (even if we found it lying around the studio).
So I would like to thank (back row, left to right) Donal, Me (although no need to thank myself), Lorraine, Don, John, Brian & Michael, (front row, left to right) Fergal, Sophia, Mark & Alice (not pictured).
Dinny loves his pet pig, Seamus and all he wants is the best for him. And fame is all Seamus wants. So it’s time for the two to hit the Variety Show stage and show the judges what they are made off.
If you want to see more of this intriguing Variety show, pop on over to The Variety Show blog and check it out for some of the extra stuff we dont post here.
Libby, 8, has a new best friend. His name is Wulfie and he’s a very nosy, very purple Big Bad Wulf. He can grow to the size of a house, shrink small enough to be invisible, stop time with a sneeze and never ever takes “no” for an answer.
Keeping him out of trouble is going to be a full time job.
WULFIE, our tv series currently in development has a brand new Projects Page.
For the last few years, since 2005, we have produced The Galway Film Fleadh’s Trailer. It is a 30 piece of animation that plays before the films and on the Eyre Square big screen throughout the festival as well as on tv and in selected cinemas throughout the country running up to the July festival. It has always been a great project to be involved in and it allows us to try out different techniques in our animation.
Below are some of the trailers from pervious years.
For the 2008 Junior Film Fleadh we produced a trailer to play before the films for the run of the festival. The 20 second piece of animation was based on the magic of film, exploding on to the screen.
The animation was produced with a Apple’s Motion, with drawn elements brought in for Flash and Photoshop.
