Toei Animation announced on Tuesday that its one-minute short anime "Jurassic!" will screen at the 32nd Tokyo International Film Festival at TOHO Cinemas Roppongi Hills Screen 3 on November 1 at 6:10 p.m. Planning producer Shiho Itō will appear at the event. The short film will screen together with a 4K digitally remastered version of Toei Animation's The White Snake film.
Toei Animation began streaming the full "Jurassic!" anime on YouTube on August 24.
Most of the staff for the anime are comprised of the younger staff at Toei Animation. The anime is also the first in a series of new projects for the studio featuring the younger staff.
The Real-Size Koseibutsu Zukan (Real-Size Extinct Creatures Picture Book) book by Ken Tsuchiya inspired the anime, and Tsuchiya served as the anime's "extinct creatures supervisor."
