As part of its partnership with the Marché du Film, the Annecy International Animation Film Festival & Market will once again present its “Annecy Goes to Cannes” showcase of five animated works in progress. The projects will be presented on Friday, May 19 from 10 a.m. to noon in Palais K, salle J.C. Bory.
The five selections are all feature films in various stages of development and production, plucked from the festival’s Mifa Pitch sessions. The presentations will gives the producers a chance to report on their progress and show off exclusive first-looks at animation sequences, trailers and artwork for the gathered distributors, investors and sales agents in attendance.
