A new funding scheme to support the development of short Irish language animated films was launched at Animation Dingle on Friday, offering a total fund of €240,000.
This joint initiative is a partnership between TG4, Fís Éireann, Northern Ireland Screen’s Irish Language Broadcast Fund, and the Animation Ireland Talent Academy.
The fund is open to Irish language writers and directors working in collaboration with experienced producers. It aims to encourage the development of high-quality Irish language animation projects. Projects can be developed aimed at children’s audiences (Cúla4) or young adult audiences (BLOC).
We hope that this funding will encourage high quality Irish language animation projects that would be available for distribution at film festivals and for broadcast on TG4 or Cúla4. The scheme will provide an opportunity for new Irish language talent to develop in animation.
An online information session will take place via Zoom on Thursday 3 April at 12:30 to provide further details about the scheme and answer any questions from prospective applicants.
