If you are planning to submit your entries for the 50th Annie Awards, you have until Tuesday, December 13, 2022 at 5 p.m. PST. According to ASIFA-Hollywood Executive Director, Frank Gladstone, “The closer we get to the deadline and the faster the submissions deluge begins, the more likely that errors will occur. “We are asking that you try to get your entries in as early as possible before the deadline, and to be extra careful to make sure they are as accurate as possible.”
To review this year’s rules and submit your projects, please visit https://www.asifa-hollywood.org. Entries submitted for consideration will be from animated productions that were released in the United States between January 1, 2022, and December 31, 2022. Exceptions, which can submit with or without United States releases, are short subjects, special projects, sponsored productions, student films and grand prize winners from Annie Award qualifying festivals. Submissions close on Tuesday, December 13, 2022, at 5:00 pm PST.
