    A Wonderful Festival with Great Appreciation for Animation

    I was incredibly honored to receive the award for Best Student Animated Film at the XXVII International Festival of Animation Films «Animaevka-2024». Unfortunately, I couldn’t attend the screenings or the award ceremony in Belarus due to my work in Montreal. However, the communication from the festival team was excellent, and they kept me well-informed throughout the process. Their professionalism and passion for celebrating animation is evident in the care they put into the festival.

    From the information I gathered, the lineup of films and the overall atmosphere seemed fantastic, and it’s clear that the festival truly values artistic creativity and innovation in animation. I’m looking forward to participating again in the future and highly recommend this festival to fellow animators!

    Thank you to the entire Animaevka team for this incredible recognition.
