A special showcase of six locally produced animated shorts, was successfully held in Shaw Auditorium last September. Produced under the famous Animation Support Program, which provides various forms of support for local start-ups and small-sized companies in the animation sector, these short lms demonstrate the enormous talent of Hong Kong animators.
