GoogleDoodle Honours Malaysia's Animation Pioneer KamnIsmail
, better known in the local community as Kamn Ismail. The date of the Google Doodle coincides with his 67th birthday, honouring his legacy in the Malaysian animation scene, especially through his use of computer technology and digital applications during the 90s.
Born in Pengkalan Balak, Masjid Tanah, Melaka in 1956, the animation pioneer received his early education at the Methodist Boys School Sentul where he developed his love of drawing. In 1975, the UK-based MacLean and Company hired him to join the Art Direction Department for the production of the movie Paper Tiger which was partially filmed in Malaysia and this was where he gained filmmaking knowledge.
Dalila Kamarudin, daughter of Kamn Ismail and Muhamad Firdaus Omar, Kamn’s Son-In-Law & CEO of Quest Animation at Google Malaysia’s office. With the help of two other pioneering animators Hassan Abd Muthalib and Hisham Harun Hashim, Kamm co-founded the Animation Society of Malaysia in 2001 to create public awareness of the local animation industry. Hassan was known by many through his work on the classic Filem Negara Malaysia’s Hikayat Sang Kancil animated shorts while he and Hisham were also involved in Malaysia’s first animated feature film, Silat Legenda.
In the same year, Kamn also established his own company called Quest Animations, producing shows such as Che Nat, Kumang, Toman 1, Kumang Lagenda Sarawak, Lagenda Kinabalu, Pusaka, Pejuang, Duwi, and Kiddo Science World.
