JUDGES COMMENT ON (BEST IN CRAFT) DIRECTION & CINEMATOGRAPHY
“Chicken Licken’s‘The Homecoming’, directed by Pete Pohorsky, is a quietly entertaining piece of storytelling, the kind that lands its punchline with a straight face and trusts the audience to catch the joke. It follows one man’s determined journey through the wilderness, led only by the scent of fried chicken, and plays it totally straight. Which is exactly why it works. The cinematography adds the weight to the journey: beautiful, wide, dusty frames, honest, natural light, no unnecessary frills and intentional framing. It’s confident, considered, and never tries too hard. The standout however, is the restraint that elevates the idea. It’s not trying too hard. It just is.”
– Roanna Williams, CCO at Boundless
