KOCCA-sponsored animated film, 'Indie Anibox : Selma's Protein Coffee', showing signs of becoming a big hit

A short animated omnibus film, 'Indie Anibox : Selma's Protein Coffee', currently showing in the cinemas, is gathering silent popularity. Now into its 4th week of its showing, unusual for an independent animated film, 'Selma's Protein Coffee' would likely become a big hit.

The premier for 'Indie Anibox : Selma's Protein Coffee' was held in the afternoon of the 4th. Seventy minutes of screening of three films were followed by a discussion with the director. On the 5th, twelve animated films, which won the 2007·2008 college students animated film contest, were revealed.

Asked whether unnatural line reading of the main character was what he directed, Director Jang Hyeong-yoon said, "I wanted the main character to be like most of people we meet everyday. I didn't want a professional actor. Characters in my past films were also normal, everyday people with a soft voice".

Director Yoon Sang-ho said "I think that's why this premiere whose theme is "a communication with people" holds significant meaning". And he added, "The local market for independent animated films is almost non-existent. Fortunately "Indie Anibox : Selma's Protein Coffee" is getting attention, which is hopeful for the independent animated film industry".
