Annecy Reveals Official Short Selection
It may only just be Spring, but we're already looking forward to the Summer. Specifically, this June's Annecy International Animation Film Festival. For one week every summer the picturesque alpine French town of Annecy becomes the centre of the animation world.
In the months leading up to the event, the festival gradually reveals its official selection, events and line -up. This year's unveiling has begun with the reveal of this year's short selection. They include the Official Shorts Selection, films for young audiences, Off Limits, Perspectives, Graduate Films, Commissioned Films and TV Films. Two new categories are also introduced this year: Midnight Films and WTF?
In total 141 films were selected, representing 43 countries. The festival also unveiled its official poster, which was drawn by Canadian artist and National Film Board Of Canada veteran Randall Finnerty. You can see it above.
This year's Festival runs from June 21-27. For more information, see the website here, This year's selection can be found below.
