Animation shorts inspire audience at the NFB

November 5th, 2011

It wasn’t your average “cartoon show” at the NFB in Toronto this past Friday night. Inspiration and good entertainment is what the audience was filled with after 2 hours of high-quality productions that incorporated a variety of animation techniques. Even though only 4 animations took the awards, all entries impressed the animation industry and general audience in attendance.

And the winners were ….

Best Animation 2D …. “Amma” by Jiin Park
Sheridan Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning in Oakville, Ontario, Canada.

Best Animation 3D …. “Circuit” by Shinji Dawson, Yannick Gillain and Felix Telfer

Best Animation Mixed Media “Notes From Next Door” by Dave Maggio, Jon Lawitts and Jaime Klein
