WIA UK Emerges for empowering underrepresented identities in Animation

Calling all Pixie-dusted females and non-binary individuals

This is a golden callout for all women and non-binary folks working flawlessly in the world of animation. WIA UK is welcoming them with open arms to join their league of extraordinary animators.

Party before Work? Aye, Aye Captain!

The launch party is slated just before the Cardiff Animation Weekender kicks off. It seems animation isn’t just about work but also about knowing how to throw a cracking pre-work party!

WIA strives and battles for those belonging to underrepresented gender identities in the sectors of art, technology, production, and the business facet of animation.

If you identify as a woman or non-binary individual in the animation field, we extend a warm invitation to join us before the Cardiff Animation Festival kicks off. This is a platform to connect with old friends, meet new faces, and discuss about the animation industry’s current scenario and what a UK branch of WIA might bring to the table.

The event is hosted by animation industry luminaries Tanya J Scott (the brains behind Visible in Visuals), Hannah Lau Walker (establisher of She Drew That), Amy Ashton (from Strange Beast) and Lauren Orme (associated with the Cardiff Animation Festival) at the delightful Sustainable Studio.
