How can the creative industries benefit from welcoming in neurodiverse talent? What are the barriers facing neurodiverse creatives in animation, and how can we break them down? 

 

At Cardiff Animation Festival Online on Friday 30th October 2020, we were joined by animators, academics and neurodiverse filmmakers for a showcase of work created through our Different Voices Animation Workshops and a Q+A with the filmmakers.

 

The showcase was followed by a creative discussion on neurodiversity in animation led by Stephen Clarke from biggerhouse film and Dan McGowan from Hijinx.

 

This session is supported by BECTU/CULT Cymru/Wales Union Learning Fund and National Training Federation for Wales.
