    TRADITION OF ANIMATION AND HISTORY
    SHORT PRESENTATION OF THE HISTORY OF ANIMATION IN MAXIMUM 500 CHARACTERS (for example main awards and authors, important milestones, trends...)Animation industry in Bosnia and Herzegovina was rather underdeveloped before the war. However, animation film festivals in Neum and Banja Luka that were initiated some ten years ago have triggered some very positive developments in this field. A very important one is the introduction of Animation Department at the Academy of Arts in Banja Luka, that brings lecturers from the entire region. It is certain that tangible results of these changes will be visible very soon.
