Quarantine Chorus Best Animation in Paris

"Best Animated Short" at the PRPAA

Many congratulations to the makers of "Quarantine Chorus", the short animated film completed earlier this year by our second-year animation students at Escape Studios, about life under the Corona Lockdown, which has won Best Animated Short at the Prix Royal Paris Film Awards. 

This latest success comes on top of two previous awards: Best Animation at the Berlin Flash Film Festival, and also Best Super Short Film at the Prague Monthly Film Festival.

Quarantine Chorus
Set in Italy and inspired by a real-life love story from Verona, Italy, "Quarantine Chorus" is a short story about the persistence of the human spirit under difficult circumstances.

Directed by Edoardo Sartori and produced by Nickoel Izharudin, the film was based on an original idea by Tequila Mason. The film was completed entirely from home during the Covid Pandemic. Our students collaborated remotely, animated and rendered their shots relying only on their own home resources.

Festival Success
Quarantine Chorus has also been selected for multiple film festivals, perfectly capturing the mood of film-makers under Corona Lockdown. Congratulations to Edoardo and his team on their continued success.
