Back in October Animate Clay, a website for stop motion enthusiasts and professionals, wrote a short piece about our animated short "The Collector". Follow the link below to see what they had to say. http://www.animateclay.com/index.php/news/371-welcome-to-swynshire-the-collector

15-02-2012 New projects and updates for the beginging of 2012

Ok, so it's quite a way into the new year so far but we have been busy over at Approaching Storm Films. One of the projects that has been in the pipeline for the last couple of years is moving forward and we will be releasing more details closer to the time. We have finished most of the auditions for the project and only have one more to go, tomorrow. We're all getting pretty excited about it and our website monkey is working hard to get the site ready to share with you all some time in April.

In other news, we had mentioned in our previous post that the animated short "The Collector" was going to be getting a final audio once over and be re-released this year. However, we had a very stressful day a couple of weeks ago where the hard drive on our editing suit that was holding the final edit of The Collector died on us spectacularly. We have tried to retrieve the data but alas it is irretrievable. Fortunately all the raw files and most of the composited files are still in tact so we are able to re-cobble it together, but our current project is taking precedence over this so it will have to wait until later in the year. The audio artist that had offered to do it will still be tackling the task though and we are still looking forward to giving you all a more clear cut version of the film later in 2012.
