The fifth annual festival, celebrating the creativity and craft of the visual image, will take over Kilkenny city September 30 – October 1.
Coming December 14, the famed animation studio’s three critically-acclaimed Oscar-nominated animated films, ‘The Secret of Kells,’ ‘Song of The Sea,’ and ‘Wolfwalkers’ will be released as the ‘Irish Folklore Trilogy,’ a 4-Disc Blu-ray pack loaded with special features.
The directors of Cartoon Saloon’s stunning new animated feature discuss the film’s metaphorical look at Ireland’s wolves and folklore extinctions, tempering new ideas with old wisdom, and their ongoing love of hand-drawn 2D animation.
The trade association member companies Pink Kong Studios and Cartoon Saloon will premiere animated short films ‘Departure’ and ‘Late Afternoon’ respectively at the 29th Annual Galway Film Fleadh.
