The place :: Annecy

I love Annecy, French medium town between lake and mountains, close to Geneva. Moreover Annecy is the french candidate for being the Winter Olympic Game place in 2o18 .

Les Gobelins

I can’t speak about animation without mentioning the well-known parisian arts school Les Gobelins where animation is taught by the most excellent technicians, professors and animators. Oktapodi is a very funny short film made by student from this school and won a prize during the last edition of the festival.

Watch more animation on web

NFB.ca is a Web site where you can watch films produced by the National Film Board of Canada. Watch the wonderful Ryan animation film. This Oscar®-winning animated short from Chris Landreth is based on the life of Ryan Larkin, a Canadian animator who, 30 years ago, produced some of the most influential animated films of his time. Simply genious! And others many animated films .
