Si è svolta ieri la 45esima edizione degli Annie Awards, riconoscimento cinematografico dedicato al campo dell’animazione, conferito ogni anno dai membri della ASIFA-Hollywood. Nati nel 1972 per riconoscere il contributo degli artisti americani al mondo dell’animazione, nel 1992 sono diventati una vera e propria cerimonia di premiazione sullo stile dei premi Oscar, aggiungendo ai riconoscimenti individuali anche categorie più generali, come quella del “Miglior lungometraggio d’animazione”.
