The Academy invites 150 new members of the animation industry

Read...
A very important turning point was taken by the American organization simply known as Academy, the one that assigns the Oscar awards, with more than 900 new members and many from the Animation and Special Effects industry.
All the members represent above all the voting power of categories and titles in all stages of the event, from long to short lists.

The organization therefore grows more and more, including 928 new members this year, 49% of which are women, so as to expand and become increasingly fair in many ways.
