Avid Liongoren

Producer/Director & Founder, Rocketsheep

Avid Liongoren has made twofeature films, several shorts, hundreds of commercials and thousands of artworks. He works in both live action and animated productions. He is the founder of Rocketsheep, a tiny indie animation studio made up of highly talented artists who specialise in animation and friendsheep. Their first feature, “Saving Sally” (2016), was made with the aid of the CNC French film grant. It went on to win the Jury Prize at Belgium’s BIFFF, Portugal’s Fantasporto and South Korea’s SICAF as well as several other international awards. Their second film, “Hayop Ka!” (2020) competed at the prestigious Annecy Festival in France and was purchased by Netflix during the height of the pandemic. In the several years that Avid has been pursuing film, he has yet to experience financial success so he is always willing to sell his internal organs to fund his projects.
