Ani­ma­tion & Transmedia

Animation & Transmedia is an afternoon dedicated to the synergy between animation and other industries like gaming and publishing.

It will be held on Tuesday 4 March in the afternoon.

Objectives

  • To create synergies between the animation, video games & transmedia industries.
  • To encourage producers to bring a game and/or transmedia partner at the same EARLY stage as the co-producer and the distributor in the process of a feature film.
  • To foster the concurrent development of a feature film and game or apps/transmedia approach based on the same characters and graphic bible, like major hit films.

This afternoon will include interactive roundtables and one-to-one meetings, providing a unique opportunity for animation, gaming, and transmedia professionals to exchange ideas, explore potential collaborations, and build valuable industry connections.
