Synopsis
„What if you never knew you were lost? Would you know the way home if you saw it?„
We are a community of professional 3D animators that teamed up under ANOMALIA (organised by Prague production company 3BOHEMIANS).
During summer 2014 we produced the CG animated short film „POUTNÍK“ together with Keith Lango, director and entrepreneur in CG animation.
Welcome to the site where we showcase our collaborative art.
You won’t believe this is not a 2D film!
CG animation is no longer limited to just the expensive PIXAR style. The tools enable the animation artists to engage in Research & Development of new styles and find solutions that fit very tight conditions and budgets that many animation productions struggle with. Poutník short film embodied the goal to train and support the independent artists to become liberated from expensive details and heavy duty production demands. Keith Lango has developed his unique 3D solution for such low budget projects driven by performance, acting and production efficiency.
Modern animation is a collaborative art which requires not only talent, skills and an experience of an individual artist, but on top of that also solid understanding and passion for team collaboration and responsible decision-making. Thanks to the technical solution and ingenious directing method provided by Keith, the animators were granted authorship over their shots and, therefore, became free to explore multiple acting choices in real time and in direct and personal collaboration with the director himself.
ANOMALIA is a TOP 20 BEST International training platform which systematically merges continuing education and production development in order to boost professionalism, leadership and advanced art skills of the participating artists. This short film gave the team of animators a chance to work on a project which was cooked up from various artistic and directing methods as well as multiple animation and live-action techniques combined together.
We invite best professional supervisors and directors from the most successful studios. Their passion for sharing and directing teams renders the collaborative experience truly one-of-its-kind. Their leadership serves as the best method known to men to achieve professionalism in the craft via playful and intensive means in the sense of "school of play". These long term values are achieved only via such team Work and Study Experience.
