Has anyone seen that Movie??
it is done by the studio Folimage , in France

I saw that one in Annecy and can't wait for it to come to the states!!
I was blown away by it for more than one reasons!

First of all, the story!
It's GREAT .
NOt the type of story you'd expect for kids, and, afterwards, you realise that this isn't really a kid's story at all, but just a GOOD story ( ifthat makes any sense!)
I 've seen to many "kid's" story that were actually talking down to the kids.. I'm not saying that this is bad, ( sometimes, watching things that don't require a lot of thinking is...
hu.. ok.. so.. yeah, i am saying that it is bad.. sorry!lol)

Then, the art work
Straight out of a children's book!
pastel and colored crayons, non academic perspective
At first, you're wondering .. how is that going to work?
are they going to be able to pull that off for a whole hour and a half??
the result is quite outstanding according to me
Not only did it work, But i couldn't help wanting to see more of that movie..
can't wait for the next one to come out( they are already working on the next one!)

So..
Preferences set aside..
isn't that a new type of two d animation that could actually lead teh way to a whole new generation of animation??

My point is..
two D as Disney would do it is maybe , maybe not coming to an end.
BUT!!
TWO D animation is NOT , NOT NOT NOT NOT even close to beeing dead.

This is so motivating for me to keep on doing Two d stuff!

Any comments??
