The Festival’s Work in Progress sessions are a unique opportunity to discover the creative stages in animation films that are currently in production, as well as meet their teams and discuss with them about their artistic venture.
This year, 14 feature films, 2 series and 5 XR projects experiences were selected.
The WIP Feature Films as well as the WIP Series take place at the Salle Pierre Lamy. You will be able to check out the five WIP XR in the XR&Games Area, located at the Chambre de Métiers et de l'Artisanat, the new site dedicated to immersive experiences and video games.
