Animated, truly

It is indeed praiseworthy that Sharjah is going to host an Animation Conference next month. The conference will feature a diverse programme of 60 events, This conference, hosted as part of the Sharjah Children’s Reading Festival, will feature a diverse programme with 60 events, including 30 skill building workshops, 20 insightful panel discussions, 5 inspiring talks, and 5 captivating music concerts, led by 71 speakers from 12 countries.

Directors and artists from major global companies like Disney, Warner Bros, and Sony will present a rich programme, providing attendees with valuable insights and networking opportunities.

Animation adds sparkle and enjoyment, particularly to movies. I simply adore animation films and sometimes I feel they are far better executed than some action movies, showing an amazing range of creativity, with some fantastic visual effects. In this respect, I would rate The Lion King and the Ice Age series as truly top of the line. The Lion King is oh-so-adorable that no matter how many times you watch, you do not get sick of it, in fact you love it more.
