An animated series about inanimate relationships has triumphed in Screen Producers Australia (Spa) and TikTok’s inaugural ‘Got a Minute’ pitching competition.
Sam Cotton’s Ani-Mates was crowned the winner at today’s Screen Forever after receiving a score of 27 out of a possible 30 from the judges.
‘Got a Minute?’ challenged creators to capture audiences with 60-second stories.
Ani-Mates was one of three finalists, together with Katia Mancuso’s choose-your-own-adventure Pov horror story Beneath the Darkness, and Hannah-Rae Meegan and Monique Terry’s high school comedy The Formal.
Cotton, who is based in Hobart, will receive $15,000 to develop 10 one-minute episodes of his concept, with the runner ups receiving $5,000.
The creative said the cash prize will go a long way to expanding his entry.
“This means the world to me.
“At the moment, I’m drawing with my finger on an old-school iPad through a $2 app, so there is a lot of upgrades that can happen.
