“The SparkShorts program is designed to discover new storytellers, explore new storytelling techniques, and experiment with new production workflows. These films are unlike anything we’ve ever done at Pixar, providing an opportunity to unlock the potential of individual artists and their inventive filmmaking approaches on a smaller scale than our normal fare.”
Jim Morris – President, Pixar Animation Studios

She often found herself navigating through a male dominated field, which was even more the case in the 70s than it is today.
Andrew Schlussel, Framestore, will be hosting this webinar on Monday, the 1st of March, at 17:00 GMT, 09:00 PT.

Solar Opposites Season 2 Trailer (Official) | Hulu
Looks like the #SolarOpposites are stuck with you Earth suckers.
Created by Justin Roiland and Mike McMahan, Season 2 lands March 26, only on @hulu. Season two returns with 8 all-new episodes, Friday, March 26 only on Hulu.
ABOUT SOLAR OPPOSITES
Co-created by Justin Roiland (Rick & Morty) and Mike McMahan (ex-writer’s assistant on Rick & Morty), Solar Opposites centers around a team of four aliens who escape their exploding home world only to crash land into a move-in ready home in suburban America. They are evenly split on whether Earth is awful or awesome. Korvo (Justin Roiland) and Yumyulack (Sean Giambrone) only see the pollution, crass consumerism, and human frailty while Terry (Thomas Middleditch) and Jesse (Mary Mack) love humans and all their TV, junk food and fun stuff. Their mission: protect the Pupa, a living super computer that will one day evolve into its true form, consume them and terraform the Earth. On season two of Solar Opposites, the Solar Opposites take it bigger, funnier, and more opposite than ever before. Solar Opposites is executive produced by Roiland, McMahan and Josh Bycel. The series is produced by 20th Television.

Täglich einen Kurzen: Aardman „Independence – What’s Up With Everyone?“
Aardman has joined forces with leading researchers and mental health charities on a campaign developed to encourage young people to become more aware of factors that may be having a negative impact on their mental wellbeing. Called ‘What’s Up With Everyone?’, the campaign sees the launch of a series of short films introducing five characters, each of whom is contending with an issue related to loneliness, perfectionism, competitiveness, independence and social media – five of the most common issues negatively impacting young people, according to the campaign’s research. The campaign was led by Professor Paul Crawford at the University of Nottingham, with research teams at The University of Nottingham, Loughborough University, the London School of Economics and Politics; the Mental Health Foundation and mental wellbeing charity, Happy Space; and with young people’s mental health expert, Dr Dominique Thompson.
