Writing for Animation Lab 2026
Deadline: Mon 11 May 2026
Four BFI NETWORK Hubs have teamed up with the ScreenSkills Animation Skills Fund to create this new lab for writers to develop, experiment and expand their skills and understanding of storytelling in animation.
The lab will support up to 12 early-career-level writers or writer-directors already working in animation, or with the ambition to write for animation. With a range of guest speakers and masterclasses on subjects such as structure, collaboration and audience, the lab will offer tangible and practical insights to the exciting visual potential of animation storytelling. Each writer will also work with a script editor to develop their short film idea. The lab will take place mostly online with one in-person day at Aardman in Bristol during the week of Monday 21st September (reasonable travel expenses will be covered).
You must be a resident of one of these English regions: South West, South East (excluding London), Midlands or North.
The lab is supported by the ScreenSkills Animation Skills Fund, made possible by contributions from UK animation productions.
