Avid Liongoren has made two feature films, several shorts, hundreds of commercials and thousands of artworks, and works in both live action and animated productions. He is the founder of Rocketsheep, a tiny indie animation studio made up of highly talented artists who specialize in animation and friendsheep. Their first feature, Saving Sally (2016), was made with the aid of the CNC French film grant. It went on to win the Jury Prize at the Brussels International Fantastic Film Festival (BIFFF), Portugal’s Fantasporto and South Korea’s Seoul International Cartoon and Animation Festiva (SICAF), as well as several other international awards. Their second film, Hayop Ka! (2020) competed at the prestigious Annecy Festival in France and was purchased by Netflix during the height of the pandemic. He is currently hard at work on film adaptations of Filipino graphic novels. In the several years that Avid has been pursuing film, he has yet to experience financial success so he is always willing to sell his internal organs to fund his projects.
