The Open Show is a screening of all Character Animation student films made this academic year. The films range from year-long films to 48 hour films and one-week films.
The show takes place over two nights. To see all of the films, make sure to attend both evenings. Films are screened in the order they’re submitted, with several short intermissions.
Many of our students’ films from this academic year are gathered in our 2026 YouTube Playlist. More will be added in the coming weeks!
