The studio who got Oggy, an IPO & an Oscar! feat. Xilam | Animashow | Episode 8 . Season 2

Описание: ANIMASHOW S2.E8

SUMMARY
For this new episode, I'm delighted to welcome Marc du Pontavice, founder of French animation flagship XILAM. The group is behind many international hits, including Stupid Invaders, Ratz, Oggy and the Cockroaches, Paprika and Zig & Sharko. Marc's breakthrough came with "J'ai Perdu Mon Corps", the film event co-written by Jérémy Clapin and Guillaume Laurant (Amélie Poulain), and directed by Jérémy Clapin. The film received two César awards and an Oscar nomination, with the help of giant Netflix, which successfully broadcast it worldwide. With a record market capitalization over the last three years and a financial performance rarely seen for an animation studio, the group is now entering a new era of growth: that of digital platforms.
