10 October, 2023 h 4:30 pm
Just one year after its debut, the MIA | Animation Co-Production Market and Pitching Forum has achieved great results, selecting 15 projects coming from 24 countries. The submissions received have been carefully reviewed and evaluated, and the final selection signed off by the external Selection Committee composed by Cecilia Padula VP Head Kids & Family Brands South Europe, Middle East & Africa at Paramount (Italy); David Levine CEO at Lightboat Media Ltd (UK); Matthieu Darras CEO of Tatino Film (France); Mounia Aram, Founder & Distributor of MA Company (France/ Morocco); and Yago Fandiño, Head of Children’s Content at RTVE and Director of Clan TV (Spain).
The selection comprises 9 TV Series, 3 Feature Films and 3 TV Specials (one-off), mixing projects debuting on the market with projects already disclosed which nevertheless have demonstrated a solid progression in development, ready to be presented to financial institutions and partners in order of approaching the production phase. Over the fifteen projects described below it can be noted also a very strong female and/or diverse-led presence, in terms of both creators, narrative and countries of origin, commercial and artsy pieces: a collection for all palates.
