The Nicktoons Animation Festival (also known as the Nicktoons Network Film Festival) is an annual event that was founded in 2004 to showcase the diversity of worldwide animation filmmaking. It is the largest multiplatform animation festival in North America. The festival features a selection of animated shorts (10 minutes and under) from around the globe. Shorts selected for the festival have the chance to be aired on Nicktoons Network, online and to be showcased at the live event in Los Angeles in October. Several prizes are awarded each year. Animators under 18 years old are eligible to enter the Greater Creator Contest. New to the festival in 2008 is the “I Got Game” Contest in partnership with AddictingGames, and a contest for Lego filmmakers, sponsored by Lego.
Festival winners are showcased on-air and the prize winners announced during the 'Nicktoons Network Animation Festival Best Of Special' in October. Shorts are also featured online where viewers can vote on their favorite shorts, and will be showcased at our exclusive live event in Los Angeles also in October.
