Studio Soi was kindly invited by Grafill, The Norwegian Organization for Visual Communication, to come to Oslo this month and present some of our work both at “Visuelt 2010” as well as Norwegian animation conference “Frame by Frame“.
Soi’s Torben Meier will give an overview of the studio’s work on Friday, May 7th at 12:30 at “Visuelt” and on Saturday, May 8th at ” Frame by Frame“. We are looking forward to meeting a lot of artists and animators in Norway and grant a glimpse behind the curtains of our more recent productions.
Two of Soi’s films made it into the TV Special category at the Animation Festival in Annecy this year. Come and watch “Der Kleine und das Biest” as well as “The Gruffalo” there, the directors and many of our team will do the same. We are very much looking forward to seeing you all there.
