Irish Frameworks Projects Announced
Bord Scannán na hÉireann/ the Irish Film Board has announced that the latest round of successful Frameworks teams have been selected.
This is the 16th year of the Frameworks short film scheme, which is dedicated exclusively to the production of animated films.
The scheme was established to develop new talent and skills in the field of animation and has been extremely successful in encouraging innovative and novel work from Irish animators.
Previous Frameworks success stories include Brown Bag Films' Give Up Your Aul Sins and Granny O'Grimm's Sleeping Beauty which were both nominated for Oscars in the Best Animated Short Film category and Cartoon Saloon's Old Fangs which was officially selected for the prestigious Sundance Film Festival.
Kealan O'Rourke's The Boy Who Lived in a Bubble also picked up two awards at its premiere at the Galway Film Fleadh last month.
The successful projects selected for funding this year combine creative exploration with an ability to appeal to a broad audience. This year's successful projects include Coda to be written and directed by Alan Holly and produced by Ciaran Deeney for And Maps and Plans. Alan previously directed the Frameworks project The Red Ball.
Others are Trid an Stoirm to be written and directed by Fred Burdy and produced by Sean McGrath for Windmill Lane Studios and The Nonexistent Thoughts to be written and directed by Eoin Duffy with Alan Doherty producing and Fear of Flying to be written and directed by Conor Finnegan. It will be produced by Brunella Cocchiglia and Lovely Productions who previously produced the short The Invention of the Light Bulb.
Frameworks is co-financed by Bord Scannán na hÉireann/ the Irish Film Board, RTÉ and the Arts Council.
The projects will premiere at the Galway Film Fleadh 2012.
