Annecy International Animation Festival 2024
2024-06-19
Annecy is a beautiful French town on a pleasant (and gloriously cooling) lake with a little animation problem. Or rather the Annecy International Animation Festival and Market (MIFA).
There isn't much I can talk about (spoilers and scary lawyers), but the work-in-progress print of the new Transformers One movie looks great (I know that the fake bloopers will be in the final version)
... and Feathers McGraw is back in Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl. Jean Paul Gaultier revealed details of this debut animation feature at the festival too.
Also, the music video for France's Chien Méchant's "Étoile Filante" got booed by the festival audience of professional and student animators, as it was produced using generative artificial intelligence. I'll let you decide for yourself.
