Adrien Merigeau with Tomm Moore - E07

Welcome back to Animator’s Breakfast everyone. This next episode is a real honour for me, I get to sit down with the ineffable Tom Moore, and his surprising, yet completely honest choice of topic: Adrien Merigeau.  Adrien is an animator and film maker that worked win Cartoon Saloon for many years. Following his graduation film, Le Carnet de Chloe, he has created several other shorts including Old Fangs and the more recent Genius Loci, as well as several music videos you can find on his website here: https://adrienmerigeau.com/  Adrien’s work is so honest, musical and unique in many ways. He has an incredibly strong voice and I can’t recommend his work enough. His accolades speak for themselves, but in each one of his works you’ll find a heartbeat of thought and a true definition of art.  Tomm Moore is an Academy Award nominated director and one of the Co-founders of Cartoon Saloon. Their passion and energy for storytelling through animation is really unique in Ireland. Visiting their studio or the surrounding area in Kilkenny is a breath of fresh air where people excitedly discuss their inspiration. With leaders like Tomm Moore, the culture in Cartoon Saloon engenders creative thinking and above all, brave storytelling in both style and substance. I’m a huge fan of their word, and a humble addict of their voice.  Please find more about them on their website: https://www.cartoonsaloon.ie/  Le Carnet de Chloe https://vimeo.com/groups/233150/videos/7023710  Old Fangs https://vimeo.com/6757600 ---------------------------------------------- Animator’s Breakfast is part of Any-mation and hosted and edited by Cole Delaney.
