Together with a group of 15 to 16 young European animation artists, producers, scriptwriters and technical directors, you will spend two weeks at each of the following internationally renowned schools: Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg in Germany, MOME - Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design in Hungary, The Animation Workshop in Denmark, and GOBELINS, l’école de l’image in France.
The program will take you through the entire animation film production process, from concept development to financing and production management to marketing and distribution. Television and feature films, games and interactive media, traditional and cross-platform production processes are all covered at various stages along the way.
As a new addition to the program, we will organize several special collaborative events designed to meet the challenge of getting to know new technologies in order to use them to tell stories with animation. These events will include a three-day hackathon where teams of artists, technicians, producers, and scriptwriters will create prototypes for Animated Spaces, as well as a two-day game jam.
