Aardman and Canemaker Win Oscars

Congrats to our friend John Canemaker for winning the Best Animated Short Oscar, for his film THE MOON AND THE SON: AN IMAGINED CONVERSATION, and to Nick Park, Steve Box and Aardman for winning Best Animated Feature for WALLACE AND GROMIT: THE CURSE OF THE WERE-RABBIT. Interesting to note that neither winner was CG: one is a hand-drawn film and the other stop motion. Great animation can be produced with any technique, despite what industry executives would like you to believe.
