The most prestigious and diverse Animated Short Films have taken part of Animacam since 2008, an event which has brought together recognized authors, novice creators and also students from different Animation Schools. Thanks to all of them, the Festival has received more than 2,000 movies from the five continents and granted $90,000 in prizes.
Animacam gathers different topics (childhood, sports, culture, society, topicality…) and a big compendium of animated techniques (stop motion, 2D, 3D…).
We wish to continue animating the way together.
