<a href="https://vimeo.com/86542938">Dolby Presents: Silent, a Short Film</a> from <a href="https://vimeo.com/dolby">Dolby Laboratories</a> on <a href="https://vimeo.com/">Vimeo</a>.<br />
<br />
“Silent,” our animated short film with Dolby Laboratories and Creative Artists Agency (CAA) today received five Daytime Emmy nominations, including:<br />
<ul>
<li>Outstanding Special Class Animated Program</li>
<li>Outstanding Directing in an Animated Program (Directors, Brandon Oldenburg, Limbert Fabian)</li>
<li>Outstanding Sound Mixing – Animation (Re-Recording Mixer, Jurgen Scharpf)</li>
<li>Outstanding Sound Editing – Animation (Sound Editor, Steve Boeddeker)</li>
<li>Outstanding Music Direction and Composition (Composer, John Hunter)</li>
</ul>
<br />
“Silent” is a 3-minute animated short film featuring Mr. Morris Lessmore from Moonbot Studios’s Academy Award®-winning short film “The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore.” Lessmore and his fellow street performer dream of bringing their "Picture and Sound Show" to life. When they discover a magical contraption inside an old theatre, they embark on a cinematic adventure of sight and sound, traveling through movie history to find the audience they always wanted. The collaboration celebrates how storytellers, inventors, and technology work together to create cinema magic. <br />
<br />
“It’s an honor for our work to receive recognition from the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. It’s led to one amazing crescendo of celebration here at Moonbot,” said Limbert Fabian, who co-directed the animated short film with Moonbot partner Brandon Oldenburg. The pair previously received honors at the Emmy Awards for their work on a collaboration with Chipotle Mexican Grill, “The Scarecrow.”<br />

They're currently Kickstarting their project and are halfway to their goal of $7,000 – in just 45 hours! There's great backer levels including the book, original art commissions and sketches. <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/714698348/satellites-vol-1-a-comic-anthology">We highly recommend backing the project here, on Kickstarter</a>.<br />

"<a href="http://www.dolby.com/us/en/dolby/silent-video.html">Silent</a>" is an animated short film created in partnership with Dolby Laboratories and Creative Artists Agency. It celebrates how storytellers, inventors, and technology work together to create cinema magic. The story follows two street performers – <a href="http://morrislessmore.com/">Mr. Morris Lessmore</a> and "the Kid" – who dream of bringing their "Picture and Sound Show" to life. When they discover a magical contraption inside an old theatre, they embark on a cinematic adventure of sight and sound to find the audience they always wanted. Sound design was created by Oscar® nominated Steve Boeddeker and the film was directed by Moonbot's own Limbert Fabian and Brandon Oldenburg. "Silent" debuted at the Scientific and Technical Academy Awards on February 15, 2014.<br />

"The Raven" was created in collaboration with <a href="http://www.amplify.com/">Amplify Learning</a> for their seventh grade curriculum, which will be used on tablets in classrooms across America. The animated short film features narration from Tony Award®-winning Jefferson Mays and was directed by Limbert Fabian and Brandon Oldenburg. To accompany the 11 minute short film, Moonbot also created an educational app based on other Edgar Allan Poe works and another animated short based on Poe’s short story, "The Cask of Amontillado."<br />

Tonight starting at 5PM, ART the DALMATIAN, officially takes his place at Shreveport's Central Artstation, home to the Shreveport Regional Arts Council (SRAC). ART was designed as a "commemorative housewarming" gift by Brandon Oldenburg and William Joyce, with assistance from the Moonbots. The 19.5' sculpture guards the renovated and re-purposed fire station from his post on Crockett Street, outside of the Engine Room doors of Central Artstation. ART was fabricated by John Grant of <a href="http://www.junoworks.com/">Junoworks</a>, a custom metal fabrication studio in Denver, Colorado through a generous gift from the national foundation, Educational Foundation of America.<br />
<br />
Constructed in white fiberglass, ART has a surprising night time feature. From season to season and for holidays, ART's dots will be illuminated with luminous lights in various colors.<br />

"By day, you might think that ART is an albino Dalmatian; but, you’ll soon learn that at night he is a brilliantly dotted Dalmatian. Our hope is that everyone will enjoy the fantastic light show before and after events at the new Central ARTSTATION," said Brandon Oldenburg and William Joyce.<br />
