Putting "the talent" center stage!
Be a part of the only dedicated Expo for animation talent in the USA-located in the #1 market, Burbank California. This event fills a substantial void by providing highly focused conference programming, workshops, recruiting, presentations and networking opportunities designed to connect animation artists, studio executives and industry leaders both locally and internationally.
Launched in 2004 CTN (The Creative Talent Network) is a virtual community of animation artists from some of the highest grossing films in the history of animation who come together once a year to showcase their work and connect with other creatives. As the leaders of this community, our mission is to empower the talent and engage with studios and educators. Making meaningful connections that propel talent into positions within the animation, games and surrounding industries is at the heart of what we do.
"Great ideas and meaningful connections happen most often in the hallways and casual gatherings of creative and talented people!" says Tina Price founder of CTN and award winning animator, industry pioneer and 24 year former animation professional with the Walt Disney Animation Studios. The CTN Animation Expo is a unique event that brings these creative talents together by providing a collaborative arena in the heart of the animation market to promote employment, education and industry growth - and have some FUN doing it!
FROM THE PRODUCER
The CTN animation eXpo (CTNX) is the annual gathering of the global creative community. With a simple motto: “Putting the Talent Center Stage” literally thousands of artists crossing over studio and geographic boundaries connect under one roof to celebrate, cultivate and ispire ‘artists’ and their artistry. This event cuts to the core giving artists opportunities through privileged access to vital creator information, communities, inspiration and skills needed to thrive.
CTNX is truly a life changing event for artists of all ages where passion and practicality collide revealing the opportunity to completely immerse themselves in the awe inspiring elements of being and becoming a visual creator in this world.
