The main value of the EditShare system is that it is not just a place to record, store and serve edit suites.  Apart from doing exactly this it also a complete edit file management system, from ingest to archive, securing all the files and users in their proper places and leveraging the usability of the whole process with polished easy to use tools.  Personally I believe it is an IT and media manager’s dream product, offering a massive, secure, all in one solution – without all the hassles of “hacking it” yourself.  It can put any organisation “on the front foot” in efficiently managing and exploiting their media files and client’s projects.

This Cape Town-based animation and visual effects studio, founded by the visionary duo Goddy Roodt and Lloyd Wilgen, has seamlessly transitioned Noodle and Bun from web sensation to the silver screen, marking an epic journey in animated world domination.

Having graduated with top honors in 2012, Roodt and Wilgen garnered recognition at the New York Film Festival for their exceptional graduation short films. The inception of Polycat Animation in 2014 was fueled by their combined expertise in computers, networking, and a profound love for animation. Their commitment to providing optimal working conditions for artists laid the foundation for a studio that prioritizes excellence.

The Noodle and Bun series, a brainchild of Polycat Animation, found a home with Canal Plus+, a distribution giant in France. Beyond the digital realm, Noodle and Bun ventured onto the international stage as contestants on talent shows such as “France, Britain, and America’s Got Talent.” With a substantial following of over 1.48 million on YouTube, the duo has not only entertained but also ventured into the exciting world of merchandise. Currently, the studio is actively engaged in the creation of their animated film project.

Polycat Animation faces challenges such as a tight timeline and budget constraints, all while working with a smaller team than typical for a full-length animated feature. Their goals revolve around optimizing the production pipeline, fostering collaboration, and creating sustainable, globally recognized animated film projects in Africa.
