CEE Animation Forum vodeće je regionalno događanje za pitching, financiranje i koprodukciju, čiji je cilj povećati međunarodni potencijal projekata, vidljivost i njihov pristup širem europskom tržištu.
CEE Animation obuhvaća regionalne aktivnosti za promicanje i razvoj animacije te njezinih talenata u više od 20 zemalja srednje i istočne Europe (CEE) te tako nastoji povećati profesionalno iskustvo, predstaviti sposobnosti filmaša i producenata te unaprijediti kvalitetu sadržaja i vizualnu stranu projekata.
Sa svojom rastućom profesionalnom mrežom, CEE Animation Forum gradi snažnu zajednicu s ciljem podrške projektima, poticanja cirkulacije radova, kreativnih ideja i stvaranja novih partnerstava, medijske izloženosti odabranih projekata putem različitih medijskih partnera i promoviranja projekata tijekom cijele godine, a ne samo tijekom događanja.
Događanje će se održati od 12. do 13. studenoga 2024. u Plzenu, Češka Republika. Glavni fokus ostaje na tri najvažnije aktivnosti Foruma: Pitching natjecanje (u četiri kategorije), Market te industrijski sastanci jedan na jedan.
Market predstavlja novi inovativni alat i namjenski prostor unutar CEE Animation Foruma koji pruža platformu za profesionalce u industriji animacije putem koje će moći prikazati svoj animirani projekt, sudjelovati na individualnim sastancima s donositeljima odluka te dobiti vrijedne povratne informacije od ljudi koji mogu znatno unaprijediti njihov projekt. Osmišljen da nadopuni Pitching natjecanje, Market sudionicima nudi mogućnost kupnje akreditacija za svoje projekte u bilo kojoj fazi razvoja, proizvodnje ili distribucije, uključujući i dovršene projekte. Glavna publika događaja su etablirani CEE, EU i međunarodni producenti, kreativci i industrijski agenti iz komercijalnih, nevladinih i javnih institucija.
Prijave su otvorene za animatore, redatelje i profesionalce u industriji s međunarodnim animiranim projektima u četiri kategorije: igrani filmovi, serije/TV specijali, kratki filmovi i studentski filmovi. No samo producenti (ili drugi nositelji prava) mogu prijaviti projekte u ime projektnog tima.

The CEE Animation Forum is the leading regional pitching, financing, and co-production event, which aims to boost the projects´ international potential, visibility and their access to a wider European market.
CEE Animation brings together regional activities for promotion and development of animation and its talents in more than 20 countries of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). It seeks to increase professional experience, to present the abilities of filmmakers and producers, and improve the quality of content and the visual side of projects.
With its growing professional network, the CEE Animaton Forum is building a strong community with the aim to support the projects, to boost circulation of works, creative ideas and creating new partnerships, to give media exposure to selected projects through various media partners and to promote projects during the whole year, not only during the event, to follow the life of the project after Forum as well.

The main audience of the event are established CEE, EU and international producers, creatives and industry agents from commercial, NGO and public institutions.
