Continuation of the Production of Satoshi Kon’s Animation Feature Film, Dreaming Machine | |||
This is to announce that Madhouse Inc. (Nakano-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Masami Ochiai) will continue with the production of the animation feature film, Dreaming Machine. The director of this film, Satoshi Kon, regretfully passed away on August 24th this year after a battle with pancreatic cancer at the young age of 46. Mr. Kon was working on the production of Dreaming Machine, which was to be his next feature film, at the time of his death. He had already posted details of the setting and characters of this movie on his official website, and his fans from not only Japan but also all over the world were eagerly awaiting its release when he finally succumbed to his illness on August 24th. Although we had doubts over our ability to complete the production of the movie in the early stages, the overwhelming number of enquiries and warm support we received from so many people decided us to reactivate the production process, and we are currently working hard to see the movie through to completion. We therefore hereby announce that we have restarted production work under the direction of a substitute director while ensuring that we maintain the true intentions of Mr. Kon, for not only the fans from around the world who were eagerly awaiting its release, but also for Satoshi Kon himself. Story, Screenplay, and directed by: Satoshi Kon Dreaming Machine: Profile: Yoshimi Itazu: Having worked as an animator and animation director on Satoshi Kon’s Paranoia Agent in 2004, he then became the chief animator for his 2005 release, Paprika. He was the overall animation director for Mitsuo Iso’s TV series, Coil: A Circle of Children, in 2007. The production of Dreaming Machine will provide him with his first opportunity to become involved with character design. A rising star that the industry welcomes. Toshiyuki Inoue: A freelancer who worked for Studio Junio after graduating from college. A member of the Japan Animation Creators Association (JAniCA.) He has been involved in the production of many epoch-making Japanese animation movies, including Akira, Kiki's Delivery Service, Memories, Ghost in the Shell, Jin-Roh and Innocence. He was greatly trusted by Satoshi Kon, and after working as the animation director for Millenium Actress, he also became an indispensible member of the production teams for Tokyo Godfathers, Paranoia Agent and Paprika. |
