Call for animation companies to apply for latest funding call



Date Posted: July 5, 2023

We are calling Northern Ireland based animation companies to apply for our Creative Animation scheme. The scheme provides junior level creators/animators with the opportunity to develop their own ideas with support from established animation companies.

The animation companies should have identified Northern Ireland resident emerging talent that could be supported through this funding to develop and create animated short films. The identified individual (creator/animator) should not be a principal of the company and should not currently be working in IP generation.

The scheme is designed to ensure that the animation company can provide the support and guidance needed for the creator/animator to deliver a quality animated short film on schedule and budget. As such the applicant animation company must have a substantive base.

The scheme is supported via funding from the Screen Fund and BFI NETWORK. Northern Ireland Screen will support the production of up to two animated short films through funding awarded in the financial year 2023-24.

Further information of the full applications details can be found here.

Apply by Friday 25th August.
