CEE Animation Workshop jednogodišnji je program profesionalnog usavršavanja usmjeren na razvoj animiranih projekata te unaprjeđenje vještina producenata i njihovih kreativnih timova u području animacije.
Program je prilagođen potrebama producenata i njihovih kreativnih timova s animiranim projektima (bilo kojeg formata) u razvoju, ali je također otvoren i za ograničen broj karijerno orijentiranih sudionika koji se radionici pridružuju bez projekta, s ciljem razvoja dugoročne strategije za svoju produkcijsku kuću. U 2026. godini, po prvi put, program je otvoren i za pripravnike – savjetnike za scenarije u animaciji.
Tijekom jednogodišnjeg programa polaznici će imati priliku dodatno razviti svoje scenarije, usavršiti vještine predstavljanja projekata te sudjelovati na predavanjima uglednih stručnjaka i u analizi uspješnih primjera iz prakse. Producenti će pritom proširiti svoje znanje o kreativnim i financijskim aspektima produkcije animacije te produbiti stručnost u područjima kao što su:
Karijerno orijentirani polaznici, koji pohađaju radionicu bez vlastitog projekta, pozvani su da se pridruže projektnim timovima kao „producenti u sjeni“. Očekuje se njihovo aktivno sudjelovanje u svim segmentima programa, uključujući individualne konzultacije s iskusnim stručnjacima iz industrije animacije, kao i razradu vlastite profesionalne strategije i sljedećih koraka u karijeri.
Dvogodišnji program za savjetnike za scenarije u animaciji intenzivna je i sveobuhvatna obuka namijenjena pojedincima s izraženom motivacijom za rad u području scenarističkog savjetovanja kao mogućeg karijernog puta. Sudionici prate rad profesionalnih savjetnika i aktivno sudjeluju u svim segmentima obuke.
Steći će uvid u procese pisanja, razvoja i realizacije animacijskih projekata, iskustvo rada na kratkim, serijskim i dugometražnim filmovima različitih žanrova, tehnika i stilova, uključujući i animirane dokumentarce. Na kraju programa, polaznici će posjedovati konkretne vještine scenarističkog savjetovanja te razumijevanje cjelokupnog procesa produkcije animiranog filma – od ideje do distribucije.
Program završava prezentacijom cjelovitog produkcijskog paketa i predstavljanjem odabranim profesionalcima iz industrije – predstavnicima financijskih institucija, televizijskih kuća, producenata, festivala, prodajnih agenata i distributera – kroz individualne (1:1) sastanke. Nakon završetka programa, polaznici mogu iskoristiti CEE Animation mrežu i ostvariti prioritetan pristup međunarodnim industrijskim i tržišnim događanjima.
