2009-06-25T02:38:00.000-07:00

The not so great Eugene Green is a 13 minute short film I worked on last year. I did mostly secondary character animation and also a bit of cleaning up and colouring.

The film was directed by Michael Hill, produced by Melanie Brunt and the lead animator was Peter Lowey.

The Film is currently being screened as part of the Sydney film festival and was also one of the finalists for the Dendy Award and the Yoram Gross Animation Award.

Here's the trailer:
