L’art du pitch en animation

The Animashow - Episode 1 - Season 6 SUMMARY What if the secret to producing great animation wasn’t just technique — but the ability to invite others to dream alongside you? In this new episode of The Animashow, I sat down with Aton Soumache — producer of “The Little Prince”, “The Little Nicolas”, “Miraculous: Ladybug & Cat Noir”, “Playmobil: The Movie”, “Little Vampire”, and more recently "A Magnificent Life” and so many more movies and series. As founder of Method Animation, On Kids & Family, and now Magical Society, Aton has built a career on audacity, encounters, and the ability to pitch the impossible until it becomes real. Together, we explore: 🚀 The art of pitching — why it’s all about creating desire and emotion 📚 The challenge (and beauty) of adapting classics like “The Little Prince” 🐞 The rise of Miraculous Ladybug and what makes it such a global phenomenon 🤝 Why encounters and collaborations are the real turning points in a producer’s life 🌎 How ambition fuels the creation of unforgettable andinternational films and series 🌀 The opportunities and risks of AI in shaping the future of animation 🎒 What it means to keep a childlike spirit alive while navigating a global industry 💬 Memorable quotes: “You need to leave a pitch room with no regrets.” “My life is about encounters.” “We had real ambition.” A masterclass in pitching, producing, and dreaming bigger than anyone thought possible.
