Screening programme

Animation Dingle is thrilled to present our short film selections for our 11th festival. This selection of 119 short films is presented across 11 screening programmes and is representative of 26 countries. Our programmes include a selection of animation work from Irish and International colleges as well as work from Professional individuals and Studios here in Ireland and around the world.

We are proud too that Screen Ireland and RTE’s Frameworks are once again strongly represented in our Irish Professional Programme.

Each year we ask experts to view, score and submit recommendations on all submissions to the Festival. It is a long process and everyone is diligent, taking time with the work of all animators. We thank everyone who submitted entries to us.

From this process, films are invited to screen at the Festival and we begin to pull together our programmes. This takes time and consideration, but we feel each programme is curated to showcase each submission to its fullest and best potential.

From the entries, nominees are decided upon. And as we all know, at our Awards Night, winners are announced.

There’s no doubt about it, it is a long and careful process. We hope you enjoy our programmes; we thank all of those animators who submitted entries; we congratulate all who got through to be screened; and we wish all nominees the very best of luck.

Lastly, we thank all those who helped us to bring this programme to you - our selectors and our judges have our deepest thanks.

Please, enjoy this, our 11th Animation Dingle screening programme.
