Animation: Awards & Prizes

Have a look at the nominations for the 2015 Spanish Goya award in the categories of feature animation and short animated film.

For a second year in a row, the Academy prefers mostly feel-good films to animation's edgy alternatives.

 Signe Baumane's animated feature also won the Ecumenical Jury prize (special mention) at the Czech festival.

The existential animation drama won the highest honor at the 2014 European Film Awards.

20 animated features have been submitted for consideration at this year's Academy Awards, both big studio and independent entries. See the list.

The 5 finalists for the Cartoon d'Or award (Best European short animated film) have been announced.

LAIKA, Dreamworks, and an animation feature from Ireland dominate the 42nd Annie nominations.

The Japanese Oscar-winning filmmaker will receive an Honorary Award from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in November.

271 artists were invited to join the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. In the animation department, though, this invitation favors predominantly the established US animation studios.
