How to Create Educational Materials and School Distribution Strategies for Animated Films

This webinar will examine how animated films can be thoughtfully curated for young audiences through a combination of pedagogical exhibition, school-oriented distribution, and structured educational activities. Film pedagogue and distribution lead Petra Gajžler joins exhibition curator Lucija Smodiš to explore how guided tours, moderated screenings, contextual discussions, and creative workshops can enrich the learning process and deepen children’s engagement with animation.

They will also share their latest experience with the school distribution of the animated feature film Tales from the Magic Garden. The session will highlight how educational mediation and cultural programming can extend a film’s impact beyond the cinema and into the classroom.
