6th Annual Florida Animation Festival

event June 10 - 13, 2021

FAF is the only festival of its kind in the region, celebrating the art of animation in all its forms. From stop-motions to visual effects, there are thousands of frames and keyframes involved that create the magic before our eyes. We are excited that we're able to build on the successes of the previous years. To date, we've received over 900 submissions from 57+ countries! Student, independent, and professional animators including animation studios from Argentina to Japan and throughout the USA submitted projects in different categories: 2D/vector, CGI/3D, stop-motion, frame-by-frame/traditional, and mixed media/experimental. We are preparing things for our 2021 festival, keeping an eye on how things are progressing with COVID and events. At this time, we feel our safest course is to set up for a virtual event and hopefully we will be able to host a few limited-attendance in-person screenings at the cinema.
