At the crossroads of the International Animation Film Festival and its Market, the Mifa,
the Creative Focus is a platform devoted to new talents in animation. The Creative Focus offers many events within the Event, including a Call for Projects for four categories:

• feature films

• short films

• TV series and specials

• cross-media (at the Mifa GMC)

The projects are selected by a committee of experts and then presented to a target public of professionals (producers, broadcasters buyers etc.) during the Creative Focus that will be taking place from 4th to 8th June 2012.

Partners will also award different prizes: financial prizes, pre-purchasing, creative residence stays...

Project developers can download the interactive entry form and send their projects to CITIA, the Festival organising structure, up to 15th February 2012.

In 2011, 182 projects were received from all over the world (France, Belgium, Switzerland, Italy, Bulgaria, South Korea, China, Australia, New Zealand, USA, Canada, Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Tunisia...) including:

• 77 short films,

• 33 feature films,

• 52 series and 4 specials for TV

• 16 cross-media projects

• 28 projects were selected and 10 of the prizewinning projects are currently in production.

Many previous projects were able to start their production thanks to the prizes and visibility from the Call for Projects (check out the "Project update" page at Annecy site (www.annecy.org).
