Animation continues to give a lasting impression on audiences around the globe and make wave for the next generation of animators in Tanzania.
Tanzania has been embracing animation for several years making it one of the fastest growing industries in Africa especially, as the availability of television; cinema and Internet becomes more demanding, and so is the increase of animation films.
With the success of animated films in the last few years, Tanzania has been taking this new innovation to next level by creating and producing 3D animation video contents.
