This is J03 is a short film, produced by Once Were Farmers, and based on a ‘Exquisite Corpse’ style blog. The contributors to the blog were all from advertising agencies and the story was then realised in a live action, 3D animation mix. It was commissioned by Gate Films for the opening night film to the DADI awards, December 2007.  Since then it has had a remarkably successful festival life, including a being short-listed for the Cartoon d’Or.
