AAS heads back to Seoul!
We are thrilled to announce that the eighth-annual Asian Animation Summit will take place in Seoul, South Korea once again from November 20 to 22.
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 even more of 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. Over the course of the three-day event, up to 30 projects from Korea, Indonesia, Malaysia, Australia, Thailand, China, New Zealand and elsewhere in Asia-Pacific that are brand-new to the market and looking for financing and partners will be presented.
AND NEW THIS YEAR, we are introducing a Co-Development Initiative to help earlier-stage projects take their next creative steps more successfully. Day one and two at AAS will kick off with a curated series of these short presentations featuring projects looking for like-minded development partners in the region.
AAS is owned and produced by Kidscreen, with generous support from hosting partner KOCCA (Korea); and presenting and supporting partners BEKRAF (Indonesia), MDEC (Malaysia), Create NSW and Screen Queensland (Australia), DITP (Thailand), ASIFA China and Create Wellington (New Zealand).
There’s plenty of information about AAS 2019 on our website, and registration is now open. We are offering a $200 Early-Bird discount, but only until Friday, August 30.
