Munich, July 7, 2009 — The animago AWARD is the most important award in the animation industry and has been held each year for the 13 years. This year it is sponsored by the Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg. For the first time, the award ceremony will take place in Studio Babelsberg at the fx.Center – an ideal location.
The architectural design of the building, created by Japanese architect Sin Takamatsu, creates a striking impression. It provides dedicated office and technical areas for high-end post-production, including three studios, two cinemas, several event locations and a bistro. “This will be a new home for the animago AWARD and the animago CONFERENCE,” says animago project leader Matthias J. Lange. The event has moved from Karlsruhe to Potsdam thanks to the new support from the Berlin-Brandenburg Medienboard.
In this ultra-modern and architecturally unique post-production complex, there are three fully equipped studios for film, TV and advertising production with a combined total of 1,118 sqm. The conference room and Studio fx1 specialises in film and visual-effects production. This is where the animago AWARD ceremony will be held. The other studios and cinema are ideal conference locations: the fx.Center also offers a 155-seat cinema, plus a 19-seat room for 35mm and Super 35mm screenings and a digital cinema projector for HD and 2K projection.
