2 animation AWARDS in USA & Russia!

Saturday 11th September was a big night for “The Astronomers Sun”. It is with huge pleasure I am able to announce two new awards.

“The Astronomers Sun” won the animation award at the 2010 Rome International Film Festival on Saturday in Georgia, USA!
Managing Director, Laura Musselwhite of RIFF offered us this wonderful acolade,"When you have an animated short that makes you cry (as it did myself and several others whom I know), it deserves to be the winner. Please tell the filmmakers how well received their film was at RIFF."


Then across the Atlantic, the VI International Short and Animation Film Festival OPEN CINEMA awarded "THE ASTRONOMER’S SUN" Special Prize from the Organizing Committee «For the mystery of liberation»! I’m told the film was highly estimated by the members of International Jury, organizing committee and rose an enthusiastic response from the side of public.

I would like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to Simon and Jessica and our wonderful team who got behind this film and to realise the director’s vision so exquisitely.

Congratulations!
