AAS heads to Seoul!
We are thrilled to announce that this year’s seventh-annual Asian Animation Summit will take place in Seoul, South Korea from November 28 to 30.
Make plans to join us in this modern, cosmopolitan capital city that’s the heart and soul of Korean culture and entertainment, and get ready to discover Asia-Pacific’s best new TV animation concepts first.
We are anticipating that roughly 250 attendees will take part in this year’s Asian Animation Summit, which is designed to showcase Asia-Pacific’s strongest animated projects looking for investors and partners, and to stimulate co-production and co-financing of animation in the region.
Over the course of the three-day event, 24 projects from Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia, Australia, Thailand, China and elsewhere in Asia-Pacific that are brand-new to the market and looking for financing and partners will be presented. And each day will begin with a highly informative panel discussion focusing on a different type of co-production model at play in Asia-Pacific.
AAS is owned and produced by Kidscreen, with generous support from hosting partner KOCCA (Korea); presenting partners MDEC (Malaysia) and BEKRAF (Indonesia); and supporting partners Create NSW and Screen Queensland (Australia), DITP (Thailand) and ASIFA China. There’s plenty of information about AAS 2018 on our website, and registration is now open. We are offering a $200 Early-Bird discount, but only until Friday, August 31.
