In nuce: Telescope Animation released its concept trailer for the animated feature film The Last Whale Singer back in June this year. The concept trailer for the family-friendly film was presented this year at the International Animation Film Festival in Annecy – at the Epic Games stand. The film tells the story of a rebellious teenage humpback whale who, accompanied by a fussy sucker fish and a tough-as-nails orca, sets off into the depths of the ocean to take on a menacing deep-sea monster. The concept trailer is linked below.

In addition, the two co-CEOs Maite Woköck and Reza Memari gave us an insight into how Telescope Animation managed to win two Epic MegaGrants, the benefits that came with it, and why Maite and Reza decided to develop The Last Whale Singer as an animated feature film, streaming series and game.
