Animex 2009

University of Teesside hosts the International Festival of Animation and Computer Games, Animex, now celebrating its 10th anniversary. The programme includes talks and presentations from some of the most respected artists in the world involved in animation and computer games. The Animex International Festival of Animation and Computer Games takes place every year in Middlesbrough in the North East of England. The festival has its roots firmly planted in the creative side of animation and computer games and acts to provide animators, directors, students, artists, designers, writers and educators with a forum in which they can share their knowledge and skills and promote the art of animation and games.

Festival delegates are able to attend talks, presentations, workshops, screenings, parties and mingle with friends, old and new, from the all over the planet. Since 2000 Animex has been pioneering events that make the festival a unique experience for all of its visitors. Animex 09 sees the return of many of its fantastic events including Animex Game and Animex Talk!

Game and Talk! see speakers from some of the planet's best animation and games development studios converge on Teesside. The best new talent emerging from the world's foremost seats of learning will be showcased in the Animex Awards which will culminate in a major Awards Evening during festival week. Finally, Animex will be taken to the Street as walls, windows and monitors all over Middlesbrough become temporary screens for animated content from around the globe.
