Geneviève Dale and Dean Mang-Wooley are independent animators based in Calgary, AB.
They first animated together during the 2022 48-Hour Animation Lockdown at the QuickDraw Animation Society in Calgary, Alberta. Combining their skills, aptitudes, and a shared sense of the bizarre, "Le jardin des délices" was born.
Geneviève Dale has a BFA in Theatre from UVic and an embarrassingly large collection of vintage magazines. Dean Mang-Wooley has been animating with the QuickDraw Animation Society for five years and has a talent for drawing pretty much anything (it's true, they do).
Dean and Geneviève bring out the best in each other as artistic partners and are looking forward to more projects together.'
