Cartoon Forum Moves Online

Cartoon Forum is transitioning to an online-only format, with pitches to be recorded and presented via video.

“Our objective still remains ‘Business First’, with the projects as the main priority,” organizers said. “We have anticipated this eventuality, and we have set up a digital platform where all participants will be able to watch the recorded pitches of this year’s projects.”

Since the pitches will no longer take place on-site and can no longer be recorded from Toulouse, producers can record their pitch themselves or create a presentation video.

From September 15, pitches will be placed on the digital platform per half-day following the already established agenda. Clients will receive a personal login to access it and the videos will be available until October 15.

The mobile application allows users to view all the information concerning the projects. The trailer and the evaluation form have also been integrated—online participants commit to filling it out as soon as they have watched a pitch. The application will be ready to be installed next week and users will receive your login and password at the same time.

As of next week, Cartoon Forum will send the link to download the e-catalog where, as every year, the contact information of all participants will be found. The Who Is Coming section on the site continues to be updated regularly.

“The Cartoon team is working hard to make this transition as professional and smooth as possible,” the organizers said. “Please know how sad we are to not being able to organize this Cartoon Forum and not being able to welcome you for this great meeting of European animation, as we have been doing every year for 30 years.”
