Animation Filmmakers: Get a Unique Chance to Pitch Your Project (Ghana)

Deadline: 20-Apr-22

Are you an up-and-coming animation filmmaker? Are you currently working on a new animation film and would like to make it better known? Would you love to experience presenting your project in a professional setting? If yes, then the French Embassy has organized a call for animation film projects for you!

Through its REAnimation programme (Strengthening networks of Ghanaian video games and animation films entrepreneurs), the French Embassy is expressing interest in offering young Ghanaian talents the opportunity to acquire visibility, co-production deals or work collaborations for their projects, while also giving the creators the chance to take part in an international event they would normally not have access to.

The 5 selected finalists will participate to the French Ghanaian Animation Days on May 4 th – 6 th and get the opportunity to pitch their project to a panel of French and Ghanaian judges made up of producers, distributors and investors.

The winner will receive an accreditation and support to attend the Annecy International Animation Film Festival in June, in France.
