Animation in DFM Pitch and Finance Forum
Presented at the DFM annual market
Each year, through an open application process and an independent selection panel, the Durban FilmMart Institute selects 8-10 official African animation projects in development to present to a panel of potential co-producers, sales agents, broadcasters and film funds. The Pitch and Finance Forum consists of public pitching, one on one meetings with decision makers and individual mentorship leading up to the market.
