Viborg Animation Festival is just around the corner – we invite you to take part in All Things Animated from 9-15 September 2024.

We are proud to present the work of students from The Animation Workshop and their great trailers for this year’s VAF – check them all out here:

This year the festival presents an array of features and short films from all over the world – incl. premiers and special screenings. Worth mentioning is the Danish premiers of films like FLOW (Gints Zilbalodis), Birth of Kitaro: The Mystery og GeGeGe (Gō Koga), and Sirocco and the Kingdom of the Winds (Benoît Chieux).

The festival also offers a bunch of talks, workshops and debate with a focus on a sustainable animation industry both economically and socially – VAF offers a deep dive into how funding animation works, how to work in the creative industry with a disability, and what soft skills the industry should focus on

VAF is also proud to present the VAF Artist of 2024 – Total Refusal. By upcycling AAA video games like Red Dead Redemption, Battlefield and Grand Theft Auto, the self-proclaimed pseudo-Marxist media guerrilla group aims to reveal the political apparatus beyond the glossy and hyperreal textures of this media. Through in-game performances, exhibitions and Machinima short films Total Refusal challenges the game design put forward by game producers and industry.
