The Primanima International First-Film Animation Festival returns, marking its 10th edition in Budaörs this year. This year, the animated short films arrive earlier than usual—running from October 5 to 8—at the Jókai Mór Cultural Center and BABtér, with Saturday events also taking place at the Municipal Youth Club. In addition to screenings for adults, teens, and children, the festival will once again feature workshops, discussions, and, of course, parties. Professional programs are taking on a new format, and Primanima Jumpstart—a hybrid talent development program—is launching as well.

In this masterclass Éva Darabos will discuss why the block of flats areas are so important for her and will offer a glimpse into where her inspiration was coming from to create her award-winning short animation, Bye Little Block! which received the Best Design Award at The Ottawa International Animation Festival (OIAF), and won awards in Poznań and Barcelona. She will share her personal experiences about how the whole project started and how the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design in Budapest and her crew helped her to develop the original idea into a graduation film. There are many aspects to discuss: technical steps, adapting to a new role, teamwork, communication. Later, she will give a fresh and retrospective insight to her student years at MOME Anim. At the end she will share her feelings about film festivals, the afterlife of Bye Little Block! and her future plans and projects.

The keynote will present the complete process of creating visual effects that include animated CG elements, from pre-production to finalizing the shot, with a focus on practical workflows and collaboration between different departments. We will go through the roles of the VFX supervisor and producer, working on the breakdown, storyboard, and previs, and how to make the right decisions between physical and digital elements already in the pre-production stage. In post-production, we will examine postvis, the key role of the VFX editor, and especially the integration of animation into visual effects: the workflow connection to layout, assets, rigging, animation, FX, lighting, and final compositing. The lecture will conclude with an overview of project management, approval processes, and finally the current possibilities and limitations of using AI in VFX.
