AAS goes down under again! We are thrilled to announce that this year’s sixth-annual Asian Animation Summit will once again take place in Brisbane, Australia from November 29 to December 1. Make plans to join us in Queensland’s vibrant coastal capital, nestled between Sydney and the Great Barrier Reef, and get ready to discover Asia-Pacific’s best new TV animation concepts first. We are anticipating that roughly 250 attendees will take part in this year’s Asian Animation Summit, which is designed to showcase Asia-Pacific’s strongest animated projects looking for investors and partners, and to stimulate co-production and co-financing of animation in the region. Over the course of the three-day event, 24 projects from Australia, Korea, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and elsewhere in Asia-Pacific that are brand-new to the market and looking for financing and partners will be presented. And each day will begin with a highly informative panel discussion featuring broadcast buyers from one of our partner countries. Roughly 50% of the projects that debuted at the first four AAS events have since gone into production, including such well-known series as Bottersnikes & Gumbles (2012), Kuu Kuu Harajuku (2013), Wonderballs (2012) and Balloon Barnyard (2014). |
A full 88% of producers who have presented projects at AAS report that they met critical broadcast and financing partners during the event. And 95% of them said attending AAS has helped them establish important relationships with international producers. AAS is owned and produced by Kidscreen, with generous support from hosting partners Screen Queensland and Brisbane Marketing; presenting partners KOCCA (Korea), MDEC (Malaysia) and SIPA/DITP (Thailand); and supporting partner AINAKI (Indonesia).
