Pinocchio has also won several other awards for animation, including the Golden Globe Award for Best Animated Feature, the BAFTA Award for Best Animated Film, Critics’ Choice Award for Best Animated Feature and the Annie Award for Best Animated Independent Feature. These awards are a testament to the hard work and dedication of the entire team behind Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio.
Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio is a dark, adult retelling of the classic fairy tale, following the adventures of a wooden puppet who dreams of becoming a real boy. The film features the voices of Tilda Swinton, Ewan McGregor, Christoph Waltz, David Bradley, and Ron Perlman. One of the key contributors to the film’s success, especially with the win at the Visual Effects Society (VES) Awards for Outstanding Visual Effects in an Animated Feature, was the Moving Picture Company (MPC) – the visual effects studio that created the film’s animation and visual effects. MPC’s team of talented animators and artists helped bring Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio’s world to life with their intricate visual effects work to support the filmmaker’s vision for the environment and match the stop-motion, adding depth and dimension.
MPC’s work on Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio extended to India, where the teams in Bangalore worked on the film’s animation and visual effects, bringing their expertise and creativity to the project. “The continued accolades for Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio are an amazing recognition of the passion and creativity that our MPC team brought to this timeless tale of love, loss, family and morality in a moving world. We congratulate all the partners involved in creating this beautiful piece of art,” said Biren Ghose, Country Head Technicolor India. “The complex animation and visual effects work required the collaboration of our teams in India and Canada, which is a testament to the strength of our global network and the quality of our talent.”
