SHELLEY'S EYE CANDY

Shelley Page is Locksmith Animation's artist liaison and key talent hunter!

She sits on many international festival and graduation juries every year and, in the course of these events, she collects her personal favourites into a series of special screenings, known as 'The Eye Candy Show'. Shelley returns to FMX with another collection of outstanding new short films, including the delightful 'Cardboard' (Locksmith Animation). the disturbingly creepy 'Gone Wrong' (ESMA) and the extraordinary classical animation of 'Niccolo' (Gobelins) among others.

Shelley Page, Artist Liaison, Locksmith Animation

Shelley's long career in feature animation began with legendary animation director Richard Williams, as head of backgrounds on 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit?' (1988).

In 1989 she joined Steven Spielberg's Amblimation Studio before moving to LA in 1995 to help establish DreamWorks Animation as co-head of Artist Development.

Shelley has worked in many areas of feature animation development and production, including helping establish new DWA studios in India and China.

Since leaving DreamWorks in 2016, Shelley has worked with many leading animation studios worldwide.

Her 36+ feature film credits include: ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit?’, ‘The Prince Of Egypt’, ‘Shrek’, ‘Madagascar’, 'Kung Fu Panda', 'How to Train Your Dragon', 'Ron's Gone Wrong' and, most recently, 'That Christmas' (Dec 2024).

In 2019 Shelley joined Locksmith Animation in London to seek out amazing artists for the studio's slate of feature animation projects. Locksmith Animation is currently in production on 'Bad Fairies' (2027)

Shelley also regularly gives presentations and masterclasses at leading animation schools and festivals and conferences worldwide.

One of the very best parts of her job is finding wonderful new talent on her travels!
