Short animated films at Canne 2010

| No Comments
In 2010 if you are an animator you might consider looking in to the Canne Film Festival's very own Short Film Corner which will take place from May 12th to May 21st 2010. This is an area that specialises in obviously, short films. It's a chance to talk to international professionals - Directors, producers, distributors, festival programmers, buyers etc. Their website has some great video tributes that are from buyers describing what they are looking for and what they buy and pay for.

Also for animators nearby, the Creative Talent Network Animation Expo recently proved successul. And what a line up of talent on exhibit as well!
