Preview of this year’s animate! tv commissions at the Norwich International Animation Festival. Six exciting new works take startling graphic journeys, reveal unsettling undercurrents and discover dazzling digital domains. Plus another four hand-picked recent animate! tv commissions, and a Q&A with animate!-makers including Katerina Athanasopoulou [Sweet Salt](https://animate.org.uk/films/sweetsalt/), Damian Gascoigne [Careful](https://animate.org.uk/films/careful/) and Carolina Melis [As the Crow Flies](https://animate.org.uk/films/asthecrowflies/).

Also at NIAF, an all-day cross-disciplinary symposium interrogates artists whose work blurs the boundaries between animation, film, photography, fine art and artists’ film. In the final session on Wednesday at 16:30 Tim Macmillan, maker of two animate! commissions [Ferment](https://animate.org.uk/films/ferment/) and [Animal Tragic](https://animate.org.uk/films/animaltragic/), discusses his time-slice process and more with animate! producer Dick Arnall.
