Epic ACG Fest Returns for 2025!

The Epic ACG Fest is just a few days away! Attendees can look forward to a weekend celebrating animators and artists. EACG will be showcasing a variety of films, from hand-drawn two-dimensional animation to innovative shorts using the latest technology.

‘Khentopia’ is a science fiction epic, created alongside the graphic novel of the same name. Creator Job Michiel von Zuijlen wrote, animated, and composed this feature film alone as a passion project.

A wide variety of animation styles will be featured throughout the festival. Fifth grader Otis Jones debut film ‘Get Out My Cave’ uses toys and found materials to create stop-motion. Polish film ‘Horse Portrait’ utilizes a unique paint-on-glass technique to convey the ancient art of cave painting, while the French ‘Feet-in-Water' delivers its touching story of an elderly couple with a sketchy, minimalist style.

For the first time, EACG will also feature several films created using state-of-the-art AI technology. In ‘August 32nd, South Korean filmmaker Yunbin An utilizes this new medium to examine themes of memory and nostalgia.

EACG will also host a panel on animation in the modern era. Industry professionals will discuss how current trends of globalization and shifting technologies affect filmmakers, now and in the future.

As always, the festival will end with the glamorous Red Carpet and Award Ceremony. Guests are invited to dress up in the spirit of Halloween.

Epic ACG Fest will be this weekend – October 25-26 at 1066 Linda Vista Ave Mountain View, CA 94043. Tickets will be available on-site and online at Ticketbud.
