## [animate! 2002 call for entries](https://animate.org.uk/editorial/2002/01/animate-2002-call-for-entries/)

Year twelve of the UK-based animate! funding scheme goes live this week.

animate! is now commissioning a new slate of risk-taking projects for television, with running times of 3—6 minutes and production budgets from £5,000 to £30,000.

It is not necessary to be an animator to submit a proposal but applicants must have some experience of the manipulation of imagery in film, video or digital media.

Proposals should be fired by an irresistibly original idea — an idea that can only be realised using frame-by-frame techniques or a re-presentation process. Celluloid, tape and digital technologies are all acceptable, in pure or hybrid form.

Full guidelines and details of how to apply are available at the [animate! funding](https://animate.org.uk/funding/) section of this site. Closing date for applications is 28 February.
