Barry Goes to Zagreb

Barry's Ices has been selected for the 'Films for Children and Youth' competition of  the Supertoon International Animation Festival which takes place from 31 July - 4 August in Zagreb Croatia. I think at this stage Barry has travelled to more countries than me! Congrats again to the crew and staff at AUCB.

Annecy/Youtube Competition Open

Annecy International Animation Festival and Youtube have announced they are launching the second edition of their online competition which is open to all. I am a little late hearing the news, but the competition is open for entries on Annecy's Youtube channel until May. It is a good opportunity for animators to get their films seen by a huge audience, and will hopefully act as motivation for some of us to get together and collaborate. Read the press release after the jump.
