Yaber K3 Series Honored with VGP Award for Outstanding Audiovisual Performance
HONG KONG, Nov. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Organised by the Hong Kong Digital Entertainment Association (HKDEA) and sponsored by the Cultural and Creative Industries Development Agency (CCIDA), the Animation Support Program (ASP) has been nurturing local animation start-ups and small animation enterprises for the past 10 years. This year marks the 11th year where ASP continues to support 30 local animation companies to assist them in producing original animations. To recognise the efforts and achievements of these animators over the past couple of months, a Premiere cum Awards Presentation Ceremony was held at the Hong Kong Arts Center.
The organiser invited Mr. LAU Chun, Raistlin, JP, Under Secretary for Culture, Sports and Tourism to be the Guest-of-Honour. Mr. Lau congratulated the HKDEA for successfully organising the 11th ASP and praised all the winners. In addition, Mr. TSANG Victor, Head of Creative Hong Kong, and Mrs. CHO Lowell, Assistant Head of Creative Hong Kong also attended the event.
Mr. PANG Gabriel, Chairman of the HKDEA, said, "We are not only commending outstanding animation works, but also showcasing Hong Kong's creative talents and achievements in animation arts. Hong Kong is a city full of vitality and creativity. I have always believed that Hong Kong is full of talents. This is not only reflected in the animation works premiered today, but also in the dedication of every participant in the ASP. Thanks to everyone's hard work and efforts, the animation industry of Hong Kong has flourished."
The ASP aims to promote the diversified development of local animation enterprises. Each edition sets up three different categories to provide support for animation enterprises at different stages of development, assisting them in producing higher-quality local animation works. One category specifically supports Animation Start-ups (16 companies) while other two categories support Small Animation Enterprises in Basic Productions and Small Animation Enterprises in Advance Productions (14 companies). A total of 30 animation enterprises will receive financial support of up to HK$600,000 to produce subsidised animations of at least 3 minutes, 5 minutes and 10 minutes respectively.
Additionally, ASP mentorship program offers comprehensive support to participants including training in technical and business development aspects, guidance from industry veterans to refine their original animations created under the ASP, and enhancement of production standards of local animation.
Sponsored by CCIDA, participating enterprises had the opportunity to exhibit or screen their original animation works at the Hong Kong International Film 2024 (FILMART) this year, and participated in the "26th DigiCon6 ASIA Awards" organised by Tokyo Broadcasting System (TBS) Television etc. These opportunities not only allow more potential customers and audiences to appreciate the power of local originality but also help participating animation companies further expand business opportunities.
"The 11th ASP Winners Showcase Marathon" was held at the MOViE MOViE in Cityplaza Phase 1 and on the first floor of TaiKoo Place, respectively. This year's gold award-winning "Wind Goes On" revisits the sentiments of Hong Kong's housing estates. "Alex Far Far Away" and "Cloud with Salt" offer nostalgic moments spent with friends. "Soul Ringer" and "Torikase" encourage people to rediscover their initial motivations. The adorable "Treasure" and "3.3 Bakery: The Secret of Kimmi" lead audiences on adventures with companions in "Music Within Us", "Microwave", and "Beyond". "After Spring" and "Father Figure" reminisce about family life, while the witty and intense "Kill Danny II: A Puppy Love Story" adds an action-packed touch.
