Animation World Network (often just "AWN") is an online publishing group that specializes in resources for animators, with an extensive website offering news, articles, and links for professional animators and animation fans.[1][2][3]

Content

Specifically, AWN covers animator profiles, independent film distribution, major animation studio activities, licensing, CGI and other animation technologies, as well as current events in all fields of animation.

AWN also publishes print magazines. The magazines are Animation World,[4] dedicated to animation in general, and VFX World,[5] which focuses on special effects and computer-generated imagery.

In 1995, Ron Diamond partnered with Dan Sarto and founded the Animation World Network. A year after Toy Story debuted, Sarto and Diamond produced their first issue. Ron explained that they decided to publish it online instead of in print, as there were not many journalists publishing articles on the Internet during the 1990s, and also that the animators at the time were still exploring the emerging technology when it came to computer animation in films and TV series.[6]
