Here at LAIKA, Halloween is our favorite time of year! To celebrate, we asked CG Asset Artist Cassie Valente to take us along on the journey as she designed, sewed, and beaded her mermaid costume (with a twist!). Cassie loves working at a studio where it's the norm to go all out for Halloween, and we couldn’t agree more. Happy Halloween! #LifeAtLAIKA

Don’t worry, you’re not seeing double, or triple! LAIKAns love celebrating Coraline during the Halloween season, when you can find her around the studio brewing espresso, responding to emails, building sets, and, this year, getting ready to return to the big screen. Grab your blue wig, your yellow raincoat, and join us at the theater when Coraline screens on October 31 and November 1. Find showtimes at Coraline.com #LifeAtLAIKA

Last Wednesday, the LAIKA Somos ERG organized a field trip to a screening at the Portland Latin American Film Festival, hosted at the iconic Hollywood Theatre. The film-loving LAIKAns saw Omar and Cedric: If This Ever Gets Weird, directed by Nicolas Jack Davies, as well as a stop-motion short, Dolores, directed by Cecilia Andalon Delgadillo, which screened before the feature. LAIKA is a proud sponsor of this year’s Latin American Film Festival, which continues at Hollywood Theatre through November 24. #LifeAtLAIKA

LAIKA and Portland State University have announced an exciting new partnership aimed at fostering a more inclusive creative workforce within the local community.

Last week, in celebration of National Disability Employment Awareness Month, LAIKA's Access ERG hosted a "Bleat & Greet" with adorable baby goats from Portland Goat Parties. It was a fun and relaxing event that helped boost mental health—and who can resist baby goats? A big thank you to the Access ERG for all the amazing work they do throughout the year to create an inclusive and supportive space for employees with both visible and invisible disabilities. #LifeAtLAIKA #NDEAM

This week, LAIKAns enjoyed an advance screening of the animated feature Memoir of a Snail, followed by a Q&A with its writer/director, Academy Award® winner Adam Elliot.

Be sure to check out Memoir of a Snail in theaters beginning October 25. #LifeAtLAIKA
