Greetings everyone from sunny Portugal where Nik and I have been attending the MONSTRA Animation Festival.
It is that time of year again when Annecy has sent out their rejection notices which is bad news for those not accepted but you still have a second chance to have your work screened at Annecy. Bill Plympton and I are again putting together our annual Plus Annecy screening so if you were rejected and would like to be considered for our show please e-mail me at nik@niksprocket.org(link sends e-mail) (NOT AT THE MASS MAILING ADDRESS).
Congratulations to Bill whose Idiots and Angels won the feature film Audience Award at MONSTRA and to Nina Paley for her Special Jury Award for Sita Sings the Blues, also in Lisbon.
