TippyTappy Sports smashes the Ashes for Optus Sport

Satrical sports journalists TippyTappy Sports, aka Damien Timms and Backseat Rebel's Nikos Andronicos, have been given carte blanche by Optus Sport to get stuck into the upcoming Ashes cricket series from more angles than Mitchell Starc with the new ball.

TippyTappy content for the series (produced by Backseat Rebel) includes STRAIGHT TALK (a rolling series of muckraking interviews with the current Australian squad) and GREAT MOMENTS IN ASHES HISTORY (an archival/interview documentary series that takes the piss out of said great moments as hard as humanly possible).

All the TTS output will be viewable on Optus Sport's Ashes Cricket platform throughout the Australian summer.

Fish with Legs wins Best Original Score at St Kilda

Our animated short Fish with Legs took home the gong for Best Original Score at the 2017 St Kilda Film Festival awards last night.

The film was scored by the outrageously talented Matteo Zingales at Sydney's Sonar Music. Matteo tapped into Tchaikovsky, Debussy, Joe Hisaishi and South Pacific traditionals to come up with a flippin' awesome soundtrack for our fish fable. 

Fish with Legs completed!

Our Screen Australia-commissioned animated short FIsh with Legs has finally been put to bed! 

Directed by Dave Carter, written by Nikos Andronicos and starring the voices of Barry Otto and Frank Woodley, the film was shepherded through its epic production phase by animating powerhouses Candy Burger and Rubber House Studio, given a transformative score by Matteo Zingales, and sonically landscaped by Luke Mynott at Sonar. 

We are absolutely stoked with the finished product and cannot wait to get it out there.
