\"\"The ASIFA just released the list of nominations for the 2012 Annie Awards<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I will only mention the categories I am interested in, you can find the full list on Cartoon Brew<\/a><\/p>\n

It is really bizarre Pixar’s Brave<\/strong> didn’t get a nomination for Character Design. To me it was the movie that, by far, featured the strongest Character Designs in 2012. I would really like to be enlightened about that decision.<\/p>\n

Honoring excellence in the field of animation, Annie Awards will be presented in 30 categories including best animated feature, television production(s), television commercial, short subject, video game and student film, as well as the achievement and honorary awards. The 40th Annual Annie Awards will take place on February 2, 2013 at UCLA\u2019s Royce Hall, in Los Angeles, California.<\/p>\n

Entries submitted for consideration must be from productions that were released in the United States between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2012. An exception will be made for animated short subjects, student films and television commercials that were not released in the United States. These may be considered for an Annie Award providing they were originally released during the award eligibility period.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
