ANIMA’T

After the first Anima’T last year, now is the time for consolida-tion. The last festival certainly confirmed that, on the Catalan audiovisual scene, animation productions have their own place in terms of both specificity and number and reach. It is therefore no surprise that the Ministry of Culture, the Ca-talan Animation Producers’ Association (Animats), DIBOOS, SITGES – International Fantastic Film Festival of Catalonia, Catalan Films & TV – PROA and Televisió de Catalunya have once again committed to organising this meeting point for professionals, talent and innovation. Equally important is the support of the institutions (ICEX, MEDIA Antena Catalun-ya, Barcelona City Council-ICUB, Sitges Town Council) and the link with Mobile World Capital. This clearly shows the strategic nature and wealth of opportunities that animation has achieved.This year, Anima’T presents a programme clearly aimed at less traditional formats in which animation is becoming a necessary presence. Examples include VOD services or tablets preloaded with content; both platforms, as expanding fields in their own right, promote and disseminate animation content with new social and industrial dialogues that are yet to be explored in depth.It is precisely in this area of the economy of creativity, which is developing at a hectic pace and on a world scale, where Cata-lonia seeks to position itself, while maintaining and expanding our historical link with the creative processes. Catalonia has also contributed new and unique approaches to all art forms. The animation sector is no exception, and neither will we allow it to be in the near future. Part of this national strategy is the desire to establish closer ties of collaboration and to generate new synergies internationa-lly. We have never been afraid of crossing frontiers, quite the opposite: we have always had confidence in the quality of our own abilities while, at the same time, being able to learn from the experiences of others. Therefore, open to the world, ready to share and keen to grow, we welcome this second year of Anima’T.

“TOON it UP! This is what Anima’T means as a positive mea-ning full of energy. There is nothing more fresh and energetic for the animation than meeting together again on this new edition in Barcelona after heading all main international markets during these past weeks. Welcome to this international meeting that promotes connecting al the main players in the animation industry. The friendly, inspirational and magic atmosphere in Catalonia surrounded the best creations of many key writers, artists and painters for many centuries.

Mortadelo & Filemon: Mission Implausible (Mortadelo y Filemón contra Jimmy el Cachondo)Director: Javier Fesser Length: 86 minutesGenre: Animation - Comedy - Family Target: Family

Mortadelo and Filemon are the most valuable superspies in the TIA (the secret government agency), charged with solving the crimes that no other spy can...or rather, bungling situations like no one else can. In order to see their tough missions through, Mortadelo and Filemon make use of disguises as well as bizarre -and pretty much useless- inventions that together with their original smarts turn the missions into romping fun adventures never-before-seen in the world of espionage.

SPECIAL SESSIONS

Grangel Studio, created by Carlos and Jordi Grangel, has become a veritable icon in the world of animation, design and advertising. Founded in the late 80’s, the work of Carlos and Jordi with star creators such as Tim Burton and their extraordinary track record as directors of a multimedia creativity centre, have led them to be considered ground-breaking artists and trend-setters. Among the projects they have contributed to, some of the most memorable are Kung Fu Panda (DreamWorks), Hotel Transylvania (Columbia) and Corpse Bride, one of Tim Burton’s most outstanding films.
