ANILOGUE INTERNATIONAL ANIMATION FESTIVAL
Start date: May 19, 2014, End date: Mar 19, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Celebrating its 12th edition in 2014, Anilogue has become one of the major animation festivals in the region. In Hungary, it is the only international event intended for the whole of animation industry.It can already be foreseen that the film programme of the festival in 2014 is going to be at bar with the high quality standards that Anilogue's audiences have grown used to over the years. Submissions are arriving for the festival's European Short Animation competition, some of the most influential animation artists of the industry, Estonian Priit Pärn, Polish Piotr Dumala and Czech Jan Švankmajer will be present at the event. Animation students of some of the best art academies of the region – FAMU, VSMU, Academy of Jan Matejko, MOME and BKF – are going to work on a project reflecting on the fall of the Iron Curtain. There's a new school-cinema programme in place to cater for the younger animation fans as part of their studies.MEDIA support is sought for the current edition in order to allow for an extended non-national professional attendance. Each year more and more European filmmakers selected into the official competition programme express interest to participate in the industry programmes of the festival, but many need to be turned down given the peculiarities of current cultural financing schemes active in Hungary. However, the ability to function as a networking platform between national and non-national industry representatives is crucial to the long term success of the festival. Increase in the number of attending filmmakers would also benefit another major goal of the festival: to encourage local distribution of the films that participate in the competition programmes. Each year two to three films are picked up by local distributors due to the festival's promotional mechanisms. However, it is believed that creating buzz around a new title is more effective if the director is available for Q&A sessions, masterclassses or interviews in local media.
