La Salle Exchange
Montse joined us from La Salle in Barcelona, where we have an annual exchange programme.  Montse had this to say about working on Sweet Heart:  "Being Animation Lead allowed me to develop my soft skills and learn how to manage a team. I’m also very grateful to our producer Manos Zervoudakis.  Manos had a very professional attitude and he made sure all the deadlines were met.  The team work was great in my project group and it really gave me a taste of what working in a studio is like. I also appreciated the feedback sessions with ILM; they really helped us to improve our project."

Sweetheart
"Sweet Heart", has won many festival awards, including an Honourable Mention for Best VFX at the London International Film Festival.

Sweet Heart is a short VFX film created by students at Escape Studios; it was directed by Liam Mann, co-directed by Shenaaz Suliman, and produced by Emmanouil "Manos" Zervoudakis. "Sweet Heart" tells the story of two cake figurines who fall in love.
