Animation UK, in collaboration with CARTOON and with the support of BBC Children’s and Education, returns for the “Animated UK Meets Europe” initiative at Cartoon Forum 2025.
This collaboration has been instrumental in reinforcing European partnerships and showcasing the strength of UK talent and creativity in European markets. We are thrilled to be back in Toulouse to support UK producers and foster new co-production opportunities across Europe.
The session will take place on the afternoon of Wednesday 17 September, showcasing three exciting new UK animation projects, selected by the BBC and S4C, a public broadcaster and only Welsh language television channel.
Amelia Fang, produced by CAKE Entertainment (UK) & DCM (Germany)
2D animation | 52×11’ | Children (6-9)
Let’s Play in Tiger Bay, produced by Hoho Entertainment & Bumpybox (UK)
3D & 2D animation | 52×7′ | Pre-school (2-4)
The Adventures of Robin Robin, produced by Aardman Animations (UK)
3D animation | 52×7′ | Pre-school (3-5)
These projects are currently seeking European co-production and distribution partners. The curated event aims to spotlight inspiring talent and foster new creative European collaborations.
To further emphasise the strength of cross-border partnerships, a Cartoon Talk, entitled “Funding The Future: Unlocking the Power of Co-Productions in Animation”, will illustrate the importance of PSB leadership and focus on case studies to highlight successful collaborations. Moderated by Vanessa Chapman, the session will feature prominent European broadcasters and buyers.
