Tonight in Brooklyn, cult indie film production company Troma Entertainment (The Toxic Avenger) will present their first-ever animation film festival.
The Tromanimation Film Festival promises hours of indie animation, plus an appearance by online animator Ukinojoe (aka Jonathan Gran), and Skype call-ins from Courage the Cowardly Dog creator John Dilworth and The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy creator Maxwell Atoms.
Troma is no stranger to film festivals, annually putting on TromaDance, billed as “the first and only film festival of the people, for the people, and by the people.” Tromanimation festival producer John Brennan told Cartoon Brew that the company was inspired to create an animation event because “year after year we receive an incredible number of animated submissions for the Tromadance Film Festival.”
