Passion Pictures, the award-winning animation production company, has signed Canada-based creative studio Giant Ant to its roster of talent for representation in the US. Giant Ant is a collaborative creative studio working within the fields of animation and documentary.
Giant Ant is a collective of writers, animators and directors with a body of material across various strands and styles of animation. Aside from applying their creative skills to the collective’s own independent animated projects and features, they are growing their portfolio of commercial work across a range of industries, captivating a global audience with stories that are original, relevant and intriguing. Some of these stories have come from clients like Costa Del Mar, Toms, 84000, and Slack, amongst others.
Passion’s EP Ryan Goodwin-Smith says: "Giant Ant filled a gap on Passion’s roster, while being in keeping with the kind of style the company champions. It soon became clear we shared many common ambitions with our work, not least to connect with people through commercials, film and TV for a global audience".
Speaking on behalf of the team at Giant Ant, Jay Grandin, partner and Creative Director, commented: "We're very excited to join such an amazing group of artists at Passion, and to take our commercial work in the US to the next level."
Giant Ant’s Jay will be speaking at FITC in Toronto on April 17-19, 2016.
