How it works

THE 3 DAYS WILL FOCUS ON:

  • Didactic presentations by key animation and related fields players (broadcasting, distribution, production, digital platforms, streaming, publishing, licensing, new technologies...).
  • Pitches made by animation producers coming from all over Europe.

The keynotes

  • 12-14 keynotes spread over three days
  • International animation experts with various background
  • Case studies, in-depth analysis, ground-breaking topics

The pitching sessions

Selected producers will be allocated a 40-minute session:

  • 17 minutes to present their core concept and how the key cross-over elements will be developed to work across their chosen platforms (min. 2 platforms, other than TV and film or theatrical release, should be the focus during the pitch).
  • 17 minutes for a panel of international experts (from TV, licensing, investor-financing, distribution, gaming, e-publishing...) to give moderated feedback on the pitch and project, its multiplatform potential and strategy, as well as helpful advice so as to move the project forward.
  • 6 minutes "in"/"out" (so that the next pitch can be prepared on stage)

Other participants will also attend the pitching sessions.
