Hugh Welchman, producer of winning Animated Short “Peter and the Wolf,” said, “I was actually just grinning from ear to ear,” at the podium onstage. “It felt just exciting. I thought it was going to be scary, but it was exciting.”
Welchman and diretor Suzie Templeton have been working on the stop-motion pic for five years and Welchman says he's still working on it, but has been gratified by the reception he's received from toon pros. “It was a real buzz to have people like (Pixar's) Ed Catmull and Brad Bird come up to us and say they've seen the film and wish us the very best.”
