Philippine Animation Sector To Receive Boost From ConferenceThe Philippines is beginning to be recognized internationally for its inroads into the world of animation, with its large pool of people involved in the computer and animation field.
According to Marlyn Montano, president of the Animation Council of the Philippines (ACPI), the country has been a leading worldwide provider of animation services for two decades and has a track record for consistent quality work and quick turn-around production.
Some of the famous cartoons and animations made by Filipinos for foreign firms are Scooby Doo, Tom and Jerry, Addams Family, The Mask, The Jetsons, Dragon Ball Z and Captain Planet.
And to further help the Philippines' animation industry, ACPI, together with the Center for International Trade Expositions and Missions (CITEM), the French Embassy Manila and the Japan Foundation-Manila, holds this year's annual "Animation Fiesta 2005."
Animation Fiesta 2005 will kick off from February 12 to 20 with animation mini-market and conference, film screenings and workshops.
"We are putting up the conference together as a means to generate more interest, enhance awareness and solicit support for locally-made animation," Montano explained.
ACPI is an organization of animation companies in the Philippines that specializes in 2D and 3D animation.
The event will include free screening
