iAniMagic Animation Competition 2019

The iAniMagic Animation Competition is back for 2019! Get ready to combine your love of animation and animals into one masterpiece. The 8th edition ofiAniMagic, starting from August 1st, invites you to show off your animation skills whilst demonstrating your love for animals.

The iAniMagic is a fun, vibrant, and free animation competition. Their mission is to encourage artists, both professionals and amateurs, to enjoy animating and unleash their creativity.

The theme for 2019 edition is: "Animal Party".

As the French Nobel Prize laureate in Literature, Anatole France, once said, “Until one has loved an animal, a part of one’s soul remains unawakened.” Animals bring joy and help unveil our most compassionate and caring side. What’s better than taking time to carefully observe these adorable creatures and create an animation featuring their beauty? Guidelines:

Your animation submission must use animals as the main character of your work. It can be a horse running freely in the wild, a cat warrior fighting against intruders in a fantasy world, a cute, fluffy dog wiggling its bottom walking majestically down the street, or anything else you can imagine! Submissions can be an animation cycle or a story.
