500 SPEED-DATING SESSIONS AT CARTOON GAMES   (Download the PDF) The Cartoon Games took place today, just before Cartoon Movie. Organised in collaboration with the Imaginove cluster, these meetings aim to foster partnerships upstream between animation producers and video game companies. CARTOON and Imaginove, the cluster of image and digital content in Rhône-Alpes, organised the 4th Cartoon Games, which consists of matchmaking sessions of 20 minutes each between animation film producers and video game companies. The aim is to encourage the players of both worlds to multiply opportunities for cooperation between animation and video games. This year, 42 video game representatives from Belgium, Germany, France, Spain and the United Kingdom, along with 31 animation producers met during more than 500 meetings. Examples of collaborations created thanks to Cartoon Games: "Ooops! Noah is gone...

"Dofus - Book 1" by Jean-Jacques Denis & Anthony Roux Dofus - Book 1 is a feature film version of the video game. "Asphalt" by Raphaël Penasa Fauns, a Lyon-based video game company, is going to produce its first feature film.
