It allows co-productions to be finalised, pre-buys agreed, negotiation of distribution agreements, options discussed on every type of right, and licensing of secondary rights.
30 MINUTES TO CONVINCE THE BUYERS
The pitching sessions are the core element of the Cartoon Forum; each project is presented in 30 minutes to all potential partners gathered in the same room.
The screening of trailers in front of all participants during the «Croissant & Coffee Shows» gives a taste of the projects and encourages people to attend the pitching sessions.
THE HUMAN TOUCH: THE SOUL OF CARTOON FORUM
Around the sessions, the Cartoon Forum creates golden opportunities to network: at the Welcome Dinner, the giant buffet lunches, or even on the dance floor during the Farewell Evening.
