The Animation department at CDCFE will host “Keyframe 9” next Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday. The event, which is in its ninth year, welcomes speakers from the animation industry, many of whom are past students of Colaiste Dhulaigh College of Further Education.

The event will showcase the excellent relationship that the animation course at CDCFE has with professionals from Cartoon Saloon, Boulder Media and Brown Bag Films, to name a few. Students will have the opportunity to partake in a Q&A session with the guest speakers, and learn about the industry they aspire to work in. See the full schedule of talks below.
