CREATING ACCESS FOR CHILDREN’S TV ANIMATION WRITERS BASED IN LATIN AMERICA

The Cartoon Network LATAM Children’s Animation Writing Program provides writers based in Latin America with resources and instruction to write an original children’s animation television pilot and learn about animation from creators and executives at the company.

Cartoon Network LATAM Children’s Animation Writing Program

Emerging from the need for more children’s programming in Latin America, the Cartoon Network Children’s Animation Writing Program was first launched in 2023, for Mexico-based writers. Its goal was to provide these creators with resources and instruction to create an original children’s animation television pilot, while exposing them to creatives and executives at Cartoon Network. Eight writers were selected for the first year based on their material submissions and their ability to write for children’s animation.

The virtual 16-week program is returning for a second year and is now open to all writers living in Latin America. The program kicked off in March 2024.

PROGRAM TIMELINE

Submissions are currently closed.

The second cohort started in March 2024.
