About Cartoon Etna
ETNA is the European Training Network of Animation. This group gathers 26 of the most prestigious schools and universities in Europe delivering diplomas in the multi-faceted trades of animation.
Once a year, CARTOON organises a meeting for ETNA members. The meeting is called Training for Trainers and is implemented thanks to the support of the Media Programme of the European Union and a consortium of 3 ETNA members.
This conference is the primary European event bringing together academics from Europe’s top animation, film and media schools and universities, along with key representatives from the production and broadcast industries.
The aims of the event are:
- to enable trainers to develop a network, exchange ideas and programmes, to set up cooperations at European level
- to discuss current industry issues with the conference speakers so that trainers and students are better prepared and educated to face the new trends and developments.
The event specifically offers participants access to the most up-to-date industrial expertise relating to current developments in the creative and digital content production and delivery, covering animation, broadcast, mobile content and new multi-platform business models.
The purpose of the event is also to allow academic institutions from across Europe to share the most current knowledge and allow academics to share expertise and good practice, with a view to collaboration on research and course development.
Attendance to Training for Trainers is only upon invitation by Cartoon.
