We are thrilled to present you the developing project we are working on: Cándida Foresta. Sounds good, right?

We were very lucky to be selected by Ibermedia Next to make this a reality and it is a pleasure to be giving life to these illustrations created by Perilla. But Cándida Foresta is just the first step towards an animated series that we are eager to develop in the future. You know… It’s good to dream as big as you can.

Valentina dreams of being a trapeze artist, but she thinks she will never be able to do it because she has Down syndrome. Her Grandmother —who teaches her to play chess and a lot of songs— always encourages her to persevere: If the caterpillars manage to turn into butterflies, nothing is impossible. We must never lose the illusion or the desire to learn; look at me, I’m still determined to be a conductor one day!

We decided to enter into the production of Valentina as co-producers for two reasons: firstly, we loved the story. And secondly, we wanted to prove that our studio could make a whole animated film (we love challenges).

All the cinematography was made entirely in our studio, all processes from the initial development to the final cut to send to the lab. Moreover, we did it with an unbeatable quality/cost ratio, as we did the cinematography part whit only 1M€ or so.

We have heard that when you produce a film yourself, the things around it are more complicated than making the film itself. In our experience: yes, we can totally confirm this fact. The making of the shots was the easiest part, and that’s why it has been a long and arduous journey, but… wow, we have finished our first animated feature film! And, obviously, we are very proud of the result! and…hey, it’s even winning important awards! Because yes, it’s a low-cost film but is way over on quality than other productions much more expensive.

The secret? The team. All the credits goes to them, everyone has put a bit of their souls into Valentina, and it shows.

Los argonautas y la moneda de oro is a tv show. A gang of five friends will live a different summer and a great adventure, facing dangers and discovering the value of friendship in ‘Los Argonautas y la moneda de oro’, the first live-action series of the Clan that arrives next Monday, June 26, on the RTVE children’s channel.

Aimed at children between the ages of 8 and 12, it is inspired by great classics of literature and cinema such as ‘The Club of Five’ or ‘The Goonies’, adapted to the 21st century. An integrating series, in which children from different realities come together in a great adventure. A series in which cooperation between gang members is always the key to success.

Creating the CGI golden coin around which the story revolves in a series called “The Argonauts and the Golden Coin” says it all… we’re important, famous, and, why not say it, quite good-looking overall :)

Well, that’s not entirely true… Portocabo did all the hard work. After all, they are the production company behind making this adventure-filled TV series possible. We’re just happy to have participated in a small part, and well… we’re still good-looking, no one can take that away from us.

Valentina e diferente was the first breath of life of Valentina.  This film that become our first feature film as producers.

But before we were producers, Valentina e diferente was a strange professional service. We were asked to make a teaser in just one month. It seemed like an exciting challenge because we were only given a song, some simple drawings, no guidelines, and a meager budget. But in return, we had creative freedom. Basically, the client just wanted a professional result in a short time without giving importance to the rest. In fact, it didn’t seem like a good deal. But we liked the project, so we studied it, accepted the quest, and just did it. Yeah, that’s how we are, people of challenges.

As in any other work with freedom, we took the opportunity to test new techniques and technologies to give an extra touch of quality, this animation RandD was very useful for the pre-production of the future film.

Super Valentina is not just another teaser made in just one month! If fate wanted it in that way again, why not?

In this case, we did it smoothly and some advantages: the IP was based on the characters of the film we were making at that time (Valentina). So we only had to focus on lore, story, and quality.

We are very proud of the result, we think it is excellent, but it is something you have to decide for yourself. Like any parent, we are not objective… we love Super Valentina!

All was made entirely in Antaruxa animation studio. All processes from the initial development to the final cut to send to the lab. Moreover, we did it with an unbeatable quality/cost ratio.

Fiat 500 Raffle! Before accepting the job to create an advertisement for a Fiat 500 Raffle. We carefully reviewed the clauses one by one to see if they would prevent us from participating in the draw. We realized it wouldn’t, so we happily went ahead and made the ad.

Unfortunately, none of us at the studio won the car, and although it was truly disappointing and made us shed a tear or two because it’s a beautiful car and easy to park, at least we can find a silver lining… We can continue to arrive 10 minutes late to the studio and use the excuse of being unable to find parking.

This Sunday the 27th you have a new opportunity to get one of the Fiat 500 Hybrids that we raffle with La Voz. Get your primer with the newspaper and enter the code on the web!
Do not forget to paste the 10 coupons from Monday to Friday.

An advertising campaign for an authentic rum for pirates. It is something that does not happen every day. So, we accepted without thinking twice and asked for two barrels of rum as payment in exchange for the work.

Congo’s guidelines were creative and exciting. But we wanted to offer the highest quality possible for Burla Negra. Also, we had no choice but to get into the role and have a pirate life for a few weeks. Furthermore, the best part was that the result of the work was fantastic, the worst was discovering that it is not so healthy to drink rum like pirates every day – we almost didn’t make it to the delivery and we almost consumed all the payment (at least this rum doesn’t give hangover).

Sandjake is a dj group. Making a music video is always a real creative challenge, but in this case, we had the right weapons for the mission: creative freedom, a great song, and the best team in the world. What else could we ask for?

Okay, just one thing: a great success for the rest of the songs of the musical duo SandJake. Obviously, this song won’t need it because, with this music video, it’s destinated to become a hit.

Rascayú (2012) is an original IP created by some of the members of our team. The project emerged as a TV series and was presented at the Cartoon Forum. Rascayú is lucky, thanks to his magical clover, and to us who have given life to our first IP, although it is a bit weird to say this because Rascayú is a dead skeleton.
We still have a long way to go before we can turn Rascayú and his world into a successful TV Series. But we know that it will be a painstaking and satisfying journey.
