0 Comments

Nicktoons, Frederator Studios and Animation Magazine have joined forces to create The Nicktoons Film Festival. Deadline for submissions is September 10, 2004 and they are accepting 3D animated shorts. Read on for more. The Nicktoons Film Festival aims to showcase the diversity of independent cartoon filmmaking by animators from around the globe.

Animators can download entry forms starting today and entries will be accepted through Sept. 10. Submissions should be animated shorts no longer than 7 minutes that combine a unique look, great character designs and a funny plot. A selection of shorts chosen by a pre-selection jury will broadcast on Nicktoons as part of a 13-episode compilation series launching this fall. One winner will be chosen by a grand jury and awarded a $10,000 (USD) prize.

The pre-selection jury will be an assembly of Frederator Studios and Animation Magazine staff. The grand jury members will be announced on the website throughout the Festival competition (John Kricfalusi, creator of Ren & Stimpy, is already onboard as one of the three Grand Jurors). Other festival prizes will also be announced on the website throughout the competition.
