Little Guys! wins two BAFA awards

I received an interesting e-mail this past Sunday night (after having internet problems all weekend). Apparently, Little Guys! has won “Best Film” and “Best Animation” in the 2008 BAFA awards!

And I didn’t even know I was nominated.

The BAFA (Brick Award for Film Arts) is a new awards ceremony cooked up by some of the members of the brickfilm community. The former brickfilm awards (the BAMPAs) have apparently fallen by the wayside, and it seems the BAFAs are taking their place. To win twice in a first-of-it’s-kind awards judging is both flattering and humbling.

All in all, Little Guys! picked up five nominations — Best Sound Design, Best Set Design, Best Ensemble Cast, Best Animation, and Best Film. Again, a huge honor. You can read more about the awards here.

A big thanks to the organizers and to everyone who voted for the movie!
