P.P.P.S. Films are eligible when the submitted film does not exceed 25 minutes and was finished after January 1st, 2010. For more regulations, read our Terms and Conditions.
*NEW* KLIK! Special Award
Besides our regular competition categories, we now present the brand new
KLIK! Special Competition. With this competition we will focus on a different aspect of animation during every edition, and our first focus is on the
stereoscopic animated short. While the amount of stereoscopic feature-length films in the cinemas is fairly abundant, independant stereoscopic shorts are rarely shown in cinemas. So send in that eye-candy and show the world what can be done in stereoscopic cinema other than throwing random stuff in the viewer's face!
Don't forget to decorate your envelope!
We have a longstanding tradition of decorating a wall during the festival with received envelopes from the call for entries. We've seen some awesome decorated envelopes in the past years, and because pretty decorated envelopes make us happy, this year there’ll be a price for the prettiest one of all! So bring it on!
