Hey All,

I wanted to share an event with you taking place in March of 2013. The Citrus Cel Animation Film Festival is running a competition called JUICED! This is a 24hr animation competition where teams are given a few texture assets and a theme, and they are given the task of creating an animated short in a mere 24hrs.

This is our second installment of JUICED!, and we would love to get some of you talented animators from the 11 second club to participate. You do not have to be present at the festival to participate and all animation can be done remotely, and submitted to the competitions sponsored YouSendit drop box.

For more information about the festival, or to register for the competition, feel free to visit http://www.citruscel.com/juiced2013/

Do you have what it takes to get JUICED!?

DOCartoon-The Drawing of Reality
Pietrasanta, Italy - OCT. 6-12 2012

Call for entries is open.

 

Launched last year, DOCartoon is ‘the first festival in the world to be primarily dedicated to animated documentaries and non-fiction comics’. A mix of short and feature-length animadoc films, meetings and exhibitions takes place in the old Tuscan town of .Pietrasanta, between seaside and mountains, where Michelangelo would stop after choosing the marble blocks who would work on. No competition, no awards but a good selection of quality feature and short animated documentary films, encounters with artists, events and art exhibitions in the best locations in town.

There’s a Call for Entries on the home page for the this year’s event, to be held in October. Check it out:
