” on the first day of Annecy 2020 Online, this year’s digital version of the Annecy Intl. Animation Festival and accompanying Mifa market.
Discussing the film, which he co-wrote with co-director Jeff Rowe, Rianda revealed his inspiration for the story, “two things that I really love, which is my insane family and technology. As a kid I was really fascinated by robots but as an adult I’m really interested in technology and in the ways in which it’s affecting the world in very real ways, like, you know, there are robot security guards now and stuff like that.
Linda, the mother in the story, was inspired by both his mother and his aunt. “My mom and my aunt are so fun and so funny but they are also like the glue that holds our families together.” While “Connected” may tell a fantastical sci-fi tale, Rianda said he and his team sought to keep the story and visuals grounded and real, at least where the human characters were concerned.
