Work in Progress

The section „Work in Progress“ allows producers and directors to present their animated feature length film projects in front of animation professionals from all over the globe, who in turn have the opportunity to be among the first to see new and interesting productions. Four quality projects, ranging from the state of “inconcept” to “in production”, will be presented in 25 minutes slots (including a Q&A session). In their presentations the producers and directors will not only talk about their productions, but also show first footage and trailers of their film projects.
