Fish Where The Fish Are Saturday 30th at 4:00pm Panelists; Rob Doherty 🔜 FESTIVUS LONDON David Kleeman Jo Redfern Paul Pattison "Recent audience research highlights that an increasing proportion of the kids’ audience that consumes animation on TV has left the building. It’s a pressing need for the animation sector to adapt and find them where they are now. To survive, studios have to find a way to navigate social gaming platforms like Roblox and YouTube and social media destinations such as TikTok and Instagram. Are these platforms commercially viable for studios now? If not, what needs to change, and how can you make them work for you?" https://lnkd.in/eZJberAy Neurodiversity in Animation - What's Changed? Sunday 1st December at 10:00am Panelists: Simon Taylor Ari Atack Heloise Beaton Sophie Johnson Alex Davies "During LIAF in 2023, we sat down with a group of animators who identify as neurodiverse and the studios they work with. We discussed the challenges of being neurodiverse in an animated world and what studios could be doing to help neurodiverse talent deliver the best work they can. Over the last twelve months, public and professional awareness of neurodiversity has dramatically increased. But has anything changed in the world of animation? We talk to people who continue to work hard to make a difference and those who still face challenges, asking if awareness is enough?" https://lnkd.in/eUAMUqyp
