Events
Throughout the year, TAIS hosts screenings, workshops and residencies – at our studio, within the community and around the world.
Annual animation showcase
Our biggest event of the year is the TAIS Showcase. Running since 2006, the Showcase is an annual juried screening of the best independent animated short films from both international and local artists.
Part of the Showcase tradition includes our Anijam competition, which is a call for submissions of 10-second animations based on a theme which we announce earlier in the year. These short-shorts are screened in back-to-back mayhem, and the jury selection (dubbed the Madi Piller award) for best Anijam is awarded a residency to create a new short film at TAIS, and a prime spot in the Showcase the year after.
The 19th Annual TAIS Animation Showcase is on November 6, 2025!
