Through my development of Moket's Dojo Monkey animated property, I've been consistently astounded at how modern animators are using Flash to create traditional animation. The techniques and processes that can be used with Flash have delivered some amazing content, and now one such piece of work has been recognized in a very big way.
"Waltz With Bashir", a film by Israeli director Ari Folman, has used Flash to create this 90 minute feature film which explores traumatic memories of his experience as a teenage soldier in the 1982 Lebanon War. Over the weekend, the film won the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film.
There's an interesting interview with Folman on Animation World Magazine, and also another article on Popsci.com.au.
