Director presentation-Shynola

The third presentation was about Shynola. Shynola is actually a group of directors who formed in 1994 with originally four members. These four members are Chris Harding, Jason Groves, Gideon Baws and Richard Kenworthy. Gideon Baws sadly passed away due to viral myocarditis in 2008. This affected the rest of Shynola and has made them use darker colours more.

Shynola focus on using the style of animation and cartoons. They got their ideas from cartoons and comic books and everyday life. Shynola created the title sequence for the film Scott Pilgrim vs the World. They have also made music video for bands such as Blur and Coldplay. In 2002 Shynola won an award for the Best New British Animation.
