About Animation Ireland
Over the past decade, the Irish animation sector has flourished with hundreds of people now employed in this multi-million euro industry. Ireland is rightly regarded as a world leader in the animation field with Irish companies creating sophisticated and leading-edge 2D and 3D animation for cinema screens, television, web, mobile and games consoles. Irish companies are actively providing top-end animation services for the entertainment media sector worldwide as well as creating significant amounts of original IP for the international market.
Background
Ireland has a strong tradition in animation, thanks to the legacy of the classical animation companies Sullivan-Bluth, Murakami-Wolf-Swenson and Emerald City, which operated in Ireland in the late 1980’s and early 1990’s.
These companies help seed a wealth of experience, expertise and management acumen that has led to the current renaissance in Irish animation. As well as having a unique creative environment that has allowed the animation industry to prosper, Ireland also has a strong third level educational and training infrastructure for animation with the likes of Ballyfermot College of Further Education and the Dun Laoghaire Institute of Art, Design and Technology turning out award-winning practitioners on a yearly basis.
