Tokyo night.

Shawn the sheep stuck between a panda and a hard place.

Eliza stuck between a bear and a sheep.

(You can tell by the fuzzy unfocused images that it was busy busy busy!)

We’re excited about all the new wonderful people we met, and the new contacts we have from Tokyo. There is a wonderful world of visuals there. It’s a country that really understands characters. It’s a country that really understood ‘Love in the Mountains’, but that’s to be expected since the whole film is a homage to Japanese animation. We want to thank all the people we met! Thanks for showing us such a good time.

Thank you NeoN for the Law Hill figurine designed by Akinoiri Oishi. It’s 2 in 1! Something from you guys in Scotland and something from our other favorites, Aki & Pictoplasma. And thank you once again for having us over. It was a real pleasure to do a show & tell about creativity & running a company. It gave us a nice chance to look back and reflect on what we do here,  so doing the talk was actually really good fun for us too:) Just give us a shout if you want to ask us anything left unanswered after a long day of talks….. The Law Hill figure will be in good company here with lots of other creatures. See, we just spent about 2 hours plus setting up this fab photo! Top production value! p.p.s.s. And yes, you will be held responsible for setting up a yet to be confirmed collaboration with James Alliban. All the best!

Here’s some footage from our “TY-KY päivä”….emmm, it’s like a job wellbeing professional outing day. Offices with civil servants have these every year. So we did too!!

We never did ice-sculpting before and we might want to stick to our day jobs for a while anyways. But the feeling of carving into ice was really cool.

The guy instructing us with the ice sculpting was pretty modest about being “only the european champion”.
