Skwigly Podcast: Conor Whelan (‘Snowfall’)
In the latest episode of the Skwigly Animation Podcast we welcome Dublin-born, Vancouver-based animator and designer Conor Whelan, who has produced high quality commercial work for clients such as the Institute of Creative Advertising & Design, alongside personal projects such as the the Vimeo Staff-Picked Palm Springs and My Darling’s Shadow .
Most prominently Conor is known for the fantastic, multi-award-winning short film Snowfall that has screened at over thirty international festivals and toured as part of the Animation Show of Shows last year.
Also discussed in this episode: Highlights from the first animation strand of the Cardiff Independent Film Festival (where Snowfall recently picked up the award for Best Animation), enthusiasm for the official features selection of this year’s upcoming Annecy Festival, Manchester Animation Festival‘s second edition and festival etiquette (it’s a festival frenzy up in here).
