Animated Wednesdays:
As part of GFF’s Animatic Talent Lab, Animated Wednesdays is a quarterly screening series celebrating the world of animation and the growth of Scotland’s animation sector. Each screening will be followed by a networking event, offering audiences the chance to connect with fellow animation enthusiasts and discover the exciting work from across Scotland’s animation industry.
Animatic is made possible due to the generous support of the Scottish Government’s Festival EXPO fund.
