Welcome to Asians in Animation, a fun and friendly global community!Founded in 2020, Asians in Animation, also known as AIA and AnimAsians, is a community-powered 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to the celebr-Asian and support of the Asian animation community.
Asians in Animation is committed to the Elevation and the Celebration of Asian stories, Asian-led work, and the many cultures and diversity that spans the entire continent of Asia. Our organization provides information, stories, resources, and perspectives, but most importantly, Asians in Animation champions the worldwide Asian animation community. |
Our StoryAIA began first and foremost through friendship. Starting out in their first industry roles, friends and founders Brandon, Lexie, Joshua, and Olivia noticed that there was no group or organization dedicated to Asians who work in animation. They instead relied on each other for professional advice, support, and guidance, but thought, "how great would it be to have this friendship and camaraderie with our larger Asian community?" Thus, Asians in Animation was born.
|
Our MissionOur mission at AIA is to create space and support the global Asian animation community through their entire careers.
By creating more access to industry education, targeted talent development, and a streamlined communication channel between Asian animation communities all across the globe, we want to empower Asian creatives to advance in their careers, take pride in their heritage, and, be the ones who get to tell their communities' stories on the animated screen. |
