Animex is back!

The Tees Valley’s international festival of animation, visual effects and games returns with yet another stellar line-up of speakers from top studios across the world.

Following the success of last year’s virtual festival, Animex once again takes place online, featuring workshops for budding creators, student film screenings to our international audience, networking opportunities with some of the brightest minds in the industry, and much more.

Hosted by Teesside University for more than 20 years, there really is something for everyone – from the seasoned pros, to career starters, and those who simply love animation, films and games.

Don’t miss out – follow us on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Instagram to see announcements of dates, speakers and more Animex 2021 news.

We look forward to seeing you all again (virtually) in June.
