Animax Asia to produce first original animation movie

Filipino amateur writer Carmelo Junio recently won the Animax Awards 2007 pan-Asia scriptwriting contest.

His luck, however, would not simply end there.

His script has become Animax Asia’s first-original animation movie production called "LaMB," a joint venture production under the US-million Singapore Economic Development Board and SPE Networks- Joint Production Fund.

But that is just the tip of the iceberg for this monumental animation project. Animax Asia has also assembled a heavyweight creative team to produce "LaMB."

"LaMB’s" director is Ryosuke Tei who will be working with Yasufumi Soejima as storyboard artist for the original multimedia and multiplatform animation production.

Tei said he's "very excited" to direct Animax Asia’s first original animation production. He vowed to make the animation a "unique entertainment experience" for Animax viewers.

Soejima, who echoed Tei's excitement, is on board to help Tei create his vision for "LaMB" across multiple platforms: On air (two ½ hour shows and one hour finale premiering February 2009 on Animax channels); online (web manga out this Nov. 2008; online games debuting Oct. 2008); mobile (graphic novels available from Nov. 2008 and mobisodes launching Jan. 2009).
