CEE Animation Experience is a series of online masterclasses, organised by CEE Animation, in cooperation with partners from the CEE region. Delivered as live Facebook streams, available for later viewing, the webinars offer insights into the world of animation filmmaking, shared by top regional and international experts.
The webinars present current trends, case studies and strategies, with a particular focus on the development phase – when the quality of the animated work is mainly determined, with the aim of increasing filmmakers’ skills and stimulating local, national and regional communities of animated film professionals, young talent and students.
Almost three years in the making, CEEA Experience project has built a valuable collection of 36 case studies and masterclasses, and, when it comes to providing knowledge and covering current animation trends, 2024 was no exception.
