Tomorrow is the final day for the unique CG short film animation training project created by Czech animation education group Anomalia and taught by Arconyx Animation Studio head Kenny Roy. The two week project was part of a summer marathon of animation courses at Anomalia, all taught by experts from top world studios such as Pixar, Valve and Aardman Animations.

The main goal of the project was to introduce young animation professionals and students to the concepts and production realities of CG animated short films made with severe time and budget constraints.  Participants from several countries of EU worked in collaboration under Roy’s supervision.  The project brought together in Central Europe a never-done-before collaboration between a professional animation studio and the expert educational platform within ANOMALIA.

The final compiled short and more project specifics can be found on the www.anomalia.eu site as well as www.facebook.com/anomalia.eu.
