Welcome

Welcome to the 2008 Red Stick International Animation Festival. The festival has its roots firmly planted in the creative side of the animation business 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.

The 2008 festival will be April 16-19, 2008, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Festival venues include the Shaw Center for the Arts, the Manship Theatre, the Louisiana Arts & Science Museum, and the Louisiana Old State Capital.

Find out about this year's Pitch Contest! DEADLIINE EXTENDED to April 4.
