Animahenasyon 2008



The Animation Council of the Philippines (ACPI) would like to invite students to participate in the upcoming Animahenasyon 2008: Pinoy Animation Festival to be held on November 12-16, 2008.

Animahenasyon 2008 is an annual event organized by ACPI. It is a non-stock and non-profit organization whose member companies specialize mainly in, but not limited to, either 2D or 3D animation. The festival intends to showcase original content in Philippine animation, to recognize the Filipino talent in the field of animation, and to aim for local and international excellence and competitiveness.

The yearly festival will feature the different animation works of both aspiring and professional animators in the country through a competition. One of the highlights of the festival is the "homecoming" of two very successful Filipino animators from PIXAR and another animator from DreamWorks Pictures who will impart knowledge in multimedia and animation trends. There will also be an exhibit of the selected works of Nonoy Marcelo and Larry Alcala.

Also part of the festival is the one-day animation congress where renowned animators and respected media scholars will trace and write the history of Philippine animation. International animators will also be joining the festival to handle the animation master classes which be held at the De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde, School of Design and Arts building. On the other hand, the venue for the screening and awarding will be at the Cultural Center of the Philippines.

Should you have any inquiries, please contact the Festival Secretariat at 817-2727 local 108 or email us at animationcouncil@ gmail.com.
