Fantastic Films International Inks Multi-Picture Deal With Stereoscopic 3D
Animation House Imagination Films
LOS ANGELES, May 13, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Los Angeles based Fantastic Films
International (FFI), headed by Roxane Barbat and Fred deWysocki, is proud to
announce their multi-picture worldwide distribution deal with Stereoscopic 3D
animation house Imagination Films (IF), a Mexico City based company founded by
Ricardo Gomez.
Imagination Films is currently in production on three feature length animated
films that will be delivered in both digital 2K and Stereoscopic 3D: the first,
"Z-BAW", is about a ragtag team that must defy the odds and win the great
tournament in order to save their planet; the second feature, "THE ALLEY OF
DREAMS", is a heartwarming story of two brothers and their first Christmas away
from home; and "PAPAGIORGIO THE GREAT" is an enchanting look at a magical,
ever-changing circus where animals can teach people about love. Celebrity
voiceover cast for Z-BAW will be announced soon. Z-BAW should be ready for
delivery by December 2009. The other two films will be completed in 2010.
Imagination Films is the only studio in Mexico with three feature length
animation projects in production at the same time and the first CGI studio in
Latin America to own and operate a 14 Eagle 4 Motion Capture Camera system. They
also have a 300 node render farm. Imagination Films has the support of FIDECINE
and IMCINE, two Mexican government institutions, who see Imagination Films as a
technological and quality pioneer for Mexico's animation industry.
Ricardo Gomez states, "Imagination Films and Fantastic Films International
association is an unprecedented alliance in Mexico made possible by our
commitment to high quality standards in creative, technical and story telling
aspects. We have total confidence in Fantastic Films because they have shown all
the professional support and experience that any independent producer could
possibly need."
Fred deWysocki, FFI co-founder and executive producer on all three
aforementioned pictures, states, "We are very pleased with this multi-picture
worldwide distribution deal with Mr. Gomez and Imagination Films. There is great
international demand for Stereoscopic 3D movies and animated family films. We
are very impressed with the level of quality and technical capabilities that
Ricardo and his team have shown us. We anticipate this to be a very rewarding
collaboration for both our companies."
Founded in 2002, FFI is committed to developing and distributing quality,
independent films internationally that are worthy of the "Fantastic" label.
FFI will introduce Z-BAW and THE ALLEY OF DREAMS to Cannes buyers at their
Carlton Hotel, suite #134 location, US cell +1-310-560-9577. For additional
