Last Friday marked the end of our film Elon Vs Mark's exclusive festival run with its screening at Fantasia International Film Festival. We couldn't be happier to have been selected at such an great iconic event. To celebrate the occasion we started to release online bits and teasers of the movie over the weekend. What ended up being a short film selected and awarded in festivals was in fact meant from the very start to be the studio's first opportunity at dipping our toes in the waters of the online indie animation community. Like many young studios out there, service work is a big part of our bread and butter, but like many creatives, our wish is to push our own ideas forward in the hope of finding an audience for work that is closer to our interest, passion and dedication to the craft. Here's chapter 1 of our little animated saga:

We're thankful for all the people that reached out in the recent days. It was an amazing chance to connect with many artists (and we're still processing a lot of applications, we're doing our best to answer 😤 ) and to get to know the active community much better. As we've been quiet since the early days of the studio back in 2021, now feels like a good time to tell you a little about us so you get to know us too. We'll be posting exerts of our recent projects and in the coming weeks as we're updating our website. But today we'd like to share our new demo reel, fresh out of the oven. 🤙 ✨ https://lnkd.in/eiYwqBQg
