International Animated Film Association
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The International Animated Film Association (Association International du Film d'Animation) or ASIFA is an international non-profit organization founded in 1960 in Annecy France by the most well known animation artists of the time such as the Canadian animator, Norman McLaren. There are now more than 30 chapters of the Association located in many countries of the world.
ASIFA's board of directors compromise animation professionals from all over the world and they meet at ASIFA-sponsored animation film festivals on a regular basis. Some of the most well-known festivals include the Annecy International Animated Film Festival in France, the Ottawa International Animated Film Festival in Canada, and the Hiroshima International Animation Festival in Japan.
