Join five students from French animation school MoPA as they reveal their inspiration, process, and the challenges they faced during their nine-month quest to create their multi-award winning CG short “Hybrids.”

“Our goal was to create a testimony of what the oceans could become and raise awareness about the pollution and the degradation of our world.

“It’s targeted at the viewer to make them reflect on their everyday impact on the environment.

“The film got more than 130 festival selections and more than 30 awards around the world, including the VES, Siggraph, and Annecy”.
