Titmouse’s annual short animation showcase is coming back.
’s co-founder Shannon Prynoski found herself wondering what kinds of creative ideas her employees were thinking about when they weren’t solely focused on work. As animators themselves, Prynoski and her husband, Chris — Titmouse’s other co-founder — knew firsthand what it felt like to be firing on all cylinders from 9AM to 5PM while still nurturing passion projects that only lived in their heads. They understood how draining shifts between those modes could be.
Each year, Titmouse gives employees about a month’s heads-up that another 5 Second showcase is coming — a signal that the company will be temporarily shutting down in order to give anyone who wants to participate in an entire paid day off to focus on producing at least five seconds of footage from soup to nuts. As some shorts have gotten longer over the years, some artists have taken to planning theirs out as soon as showcases are announced.
