Ponoc, founded by former Studio Ghibli producer Yoshiaki Nishimura, previously produced ‘Mary and the Witch’s Flower’ and ‘Modest Heroes.’
Ghibli veteran Yoshiyuki Momose is a very accomplished artist. “The Imaginary” will give us a good sense of whether he has the directorial vision to match.
In an exclusive English-language interview, Yoshiaki Nishimura speaks with Cartoon Brew’s about the growth of his company, Studio Ponoc.
The highly-anticipated first feature from Studio Ponoc will be released this winter in North America.
“Gender has nothing to do with making movies,” Nishimura said, after claiming that women were not a good choice for directing fantasy films.
Women are too realistic to be capable of directing fantasy films, says Ghibli producer.
