Ahead of the Annecy International Animated Film Market (MIFA) 2024, La Cabane announced that France Télévisions has joined the development of the series Luce In The Lovely Land by Britt Raes, co-developed with Thuristar in Belgium, in partnership with VRT-Ketnet.
Luce and the Rock is now available on Youtube! Discover or rediscover the story of an unlikely friendship in this short film by Britt Raes, selected over 200 festivals around the world.
La Cabane and Thuristar completed the carbon footprint calculation of their last production, and the encouraging results are rewarding for the whole team! Mush-Mush season 2 was the first long-form series to be produced using Unreal Engine in Europe, and we hope that providing this calculation will be useful data for the industry.
Carbon footprint: 91tCO2eq (detailed in picture above), calculated using the Carbulator tool developed by AnimFrance.
“Vive le vent d’hiver!”, the theatrical program of short films distributed by Les Films du Préau, which includes LUCE AND THE ROCK, has reached 100,000 admissions in cinemas in France!
La Cabane was happy to take part to the RADI-RAF for the first time this year (Nov 22-24 2023 in Angoulême, France), where Perrine Gauthier shared our experience switching to a Blender/Unreal pipeline on MUSH-MUSH S2, together with our studio partner Shards.
