With the support of the Preparatory Action MEDIA International of the European Union, CARTOON is organising the first meeting between European animation professionals and their Latin American counterparts.
The 3-day meeting entitled CARTOON CONNECTION will take place in Buenos Aires during the animation festival Expotoons.
CARTOON CONNECTION is a programme intended to initiate and establish lasting professional relationships between European producers and distributors and their South-American colleagues. It should benefit attending professionals, improve knowledge of the different markets, encourage cooperation and circulation of animation works between the two continents.
Professional workshops with broadcasters, producers and distributors will highlight both the Latin American and the European animation markets from a creative, co-production and distribution perspective.
This first meeting will also allow a limited number of Latin American producers attending CARTOON CONNECTION to talk to a European audience of their on-going animation projects (series, features, specials) to see if they can arouse interest within the European animation market.
Professionals of the animation industry coming from Europe and Latin America interested to initiate contacts and cooperation with each other. Students are not allowed to participate.
Participants must pay the registration fee to Expotoons plus 75 EUR / 100 USD to take part in Cartoon Connection. To register, please fill in the appropriate registration form in the right-side column (available for European and Latin American professionals – choose accordingly).
