On 1 October, Zofia Horszczaruk (Head of Young Horizons Industry) and Maciej Jakubczyk (Head of Young Horizons), handed over nine awards for projects presented in the In-Development and Work-in-Progress section of the 8th edition of Young Horizons Industry. One project collected two awards, including the Audience Award: RAINY DAYS (photo), an animated series by the Austrian Animadre Studio.
Welcome to the world of rain, summer storms and typhoons! Up in the clouds, four little rains – Thundery, Dropetty, Roy, and Tormenta – are starting school. They dream of going down to Earth to meet real people and rabbits. But until that day arrives, the four friends must learn how to pour, create puddles, paint with rainbows and many other skills. RAINY DAYS, a project represented by Ani Antonova, producer and director at the Animadre Studio, not only collected the most votes from the audience, but was also awarded with the Animond Award.
