Funding Animation in Denmark

Join the conversation with, among others, The West Danish Film Fund (DVF), the Danish Film Institute and Ja Film, about the role of animation in the Danish film industry.

The panel will discuss the production of animation, as well as explore the opportunities and challenges in the current landscape. We will look at both the framework for film funding and the reality for production companies, focusing on how animation is actually made in Denmark. You can gain insights into what comes across the consultant’s desk, whether there are themes that are underrepresented or overrepresented, and you’ll get a glimpse into Ja Film’s next feature film project, which is based on Halfdan Pisket’s comic “Dansker”.

The Panel: Steen Risom (Den Vestdanske Filmpulje) Kirstine Vinderskov (DFI B&U Filmkonsulent) Anders Berthelsen (co-owner & Producer Ja Film).

The discussion is moderated by Kasper Kruse, head of The Animation Workshop.
