We are honored to have been awarded Film Winner in the Short Film: Animation Category at the 2009 IFFF festival. There were some really excellent and inspiring animated shorts in the competition. The work in the student films was particularly impressive. Overall, IFFF is a refreshingly animation-centric organization involving impressive talent ranging from student work to industry legends. Animation great Phil Roman was awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award, joining the ranks of Ollie Johnson, Chuck Jones, Henry Selick and Don Hahn to name just a few previous honorees. The daughters of Friz Feleng presented the animation awards.


Many thanks go to IFFF for running such a wonderful program that promotes great storytelling for family audiences and the art-form of animation.
