I really enjoyed this short and wanted to pass it along. The style is incredibly fun, and there’s even a behind the scenes blog! It’s really cool to see how they actually made this.

37th Annual Annie Awards
Feb 8th

Saturday night the guys from Speaking of Animation were at the UCLA Royce Hall for the 37th Annual Annie Awards. It was our first time there and I have to say it was amazing! ASIFA Hollywood does a fantastic job putting on this event. I can’t tell you how incredible it is seeing so many talents of the animation industry in one room. We’re really excited for all the nominees, I think Pete Doctor said it best when he said, “It was a momentous year for Animation.” Congratulations to all the winners and nominees, and to our fellow coworkers: Phillip To, Shane Prigmore, Tom Owens, and Robert Koo. Amazing work all around! And a very special congratulations to Jeffrey Katzenberg for receiving the Winsor McCay Award. You really got the feeling throughout the night of how influential Jeffrey has been in shaping the animation industry that we know today, and that is an amazing feat!
You can see the list of all the nominees and winners here:
