The Animation Show is a showcase for the world's greatest independent animated short films. We have licensed animated short films for a variety of programs from theatrical and DVD collections, to iTunes, web, and for television (via MTV). Visit us online for the latest news on groundbreaking short films, upcoming tours and other amazing cinema events.

The Animation Show was started as an annual feature-length theatrical compilation of short films from around the world. The program is annually curated by Mike Judge (Office Space, "Beavis and Butt-Head," "King of the Hill").

The Animation Show launched in 2003, making it the first festival of animation created and produced with actual animators at the helm. A sister series of high quality Animation Show DVDs now supplement the theatrical tour with additional insights and brand new lineups of films - while the main Show remains a unique and unforgettable "annual" program that is usually gone forever once it is out of theaters.

Every year the Show works diligently to highlight brilliant short form animation helping to give these filmmakers the exposure their work deserves and sharing these short masterpieces with audiences outside of the festival circuit.
