Burns Ignites a First For Canadian Animation


posted by Aaron

According to CityNews.ca, Neil Burns has directed Canada’s first stop-motion feature film. Edison & Leo is a 79-minute tale that grew from an 18-minute short of the same name. Burns tells the tale of George Edison and the birth of electricity in a unique and imaginative way. The film got its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival. Here’s a clip (NSFW):

…. and an interview with Burns.

The film was produced by Perfect Circle Productions and Infinity Features.
