Amazing teams of painters, animators, riggers, lighters, compositors, special effects artists and producers worked together from all over the continent and beyond. Animators from Gao Shan Pictures in La Réunion, Africa also participated. This was one hell of a complex production, but we are convinced that we made something extraordinary, something beautiful, intense and frightening at the same time.
