International Animation Day (IAD) 2018 – Coming Soon!
-
On October 28th, 1892, a French inventor Emile Reynaud (1844 – 1918) made the first public performance of animation at the Grevin Museum in Paris, using his own invention "optical theater." Since 2002, ASIFA and its National Groups have been celebrating this historical day as "International Animation Day (IAD)" , intending to promote and develop animation art all over the world simultaneously. Every year, about 40 countries participate in this celebration.
"IAD 2018 in Japan" will be held in four cities – Kyoto, Nonoichi, Hiroshima and Atsugi – to show inspiring animation films of Japan and abroad.
This year’s official IAD poster was created by René Castillo of ASIFA Mexico and his studio of animators, and it will be used around the world.
