Alle winnaars van de 44e Annie Awards

ASIFA-Hollywood onthulde zaterdagavond de winnaars van de 44e editie van de Annie Awards. Tijdens een feestelijke ceremonie in Los Angeles werden de jaarlijkse prijzen uitgereikt, zeg maar de Oscars van de animatiesector.

Poster The Red TurtleDe Annies bekronen de beste animaties in bioscoopfilms, korte films, tv-series, specials, commercials, studentenfilms, games en meer. In totaal zijn er ruim dertig verschillende categorieën. Niet alleen studio’s kunnen prijzen winnen, maar ook individuele mensen die een opmerkelijke bijdrage hebben geleverd aan geanimeerde producties.

Met maar liefst zes prijzen (waaronder Beste Animatiefilm, Beste Regie en Beste Script) werd Walt Disneys kaskraker Zootopia de grote winnaar van de avond. In de categorie voor Beste Onafhankelijke Animatiefilm ging de award naar The Red Turtle, de tekenfilm van de Nederlandse regisseur Michael Dudok de Wit. Daarnaast sleepte LAIKA’s bejubelde stop-motionfilm Kubo and the Two Strings drie overwinningen in de wacht. Niet toevallig nemen die drie animatiefilms het ook tegen elkaar op in de animatiecategorie van de Oscars later deze maand.

PearlDe onderscheiding voor Beste Korte Animatiefilm ging naar Piper, het schattige vogelfilmpje van Pixar. Concurrent Pear Cider and Cigarettes won de prijs voor Beste Special, terwijl Pearl drie keer scoorde voor Beste Regie, Muziek en Design. Ook deze drie korte animatiefilms zijn dit jaar allemaal genomineerd voor een Oscar.

Populairste animatieserie van de avond werd DreamWorks’ Trollhunters; de monsterreeks van Guillermo del Toro viel driemaal in de prijzen. Fox’ tekenfilmserie Bob’s Burgers won twee prijzen. Een overzicht van alle genomineerden en winnaars (vetgedrukt) vind je onderaan in dit bericht. Meer informatie over de Annies vind je op deze website.
