Blacknorth is an animation and visual effects (VFX) studio based in Belfast, Northern Ireland. It was founded in 2009 by Kris Kelly and Evelyn McGrath, with the latter leaving in 2013.
The studio was commissioned to create a number of projects for Children’s BBC and Comic Relief, which led to international recognition with the short My Autism and Me (BBC, 2011) [3] which won an RTS Award in 2012 and an International Emmy in 2013. Their next short, Living with Alcohol (BBC, 2013) won a BAFTA for best factual short.
In 2014, Blacknorth were invited to judge the Animation Award at the Fresh Film Fest in Carlsbad, Czech Republic.
Following the story of Amy, Here to Fall focuses on a frantic journey which she must take into an unfamiliar, chaotic world as she attempts to reconnect with her father.
Here To Fall was recognised with a number of awards including the 2012 Darklight Award for Best Animation and the 2012 Don Quixote Prize for Best Animation at the Galway Film Fleadh. Ultimately, it went on to receive a BAFTA nomination for Best Short Animation in 2013. In the same year, it was selected to be shown at a number of festivals, such as: Brooklyn Film Festival, Raindance, Encounters and Foyle Film Festival.
Finn in the Forest is a platform game where the player will take control of Finn and his sister Nora as they travel on their perilous journey to find Marmalade the cat.
It will be available on Android and iOS markets as well as being compatible with Oculus Rift.
