International co-productions and collaborations between the Irish and New Zealand AV industries have taken a significant step forward following the Wellington-Galway Indigenous Animation Exchange 2025.<\/p>\n
The Exchange, spearheaded by the Galway and Wellington UNESCO Cities of Film ran from March to May, and in its first year has opened doors between Irish speaking and Te Reo M\u0101ori animators and key film industry stakeholders here and in New Zealand, laying serious groundwork for growth opportunities for the Irish audiovisual industry; new avenues through which it can extend its international reach; and means to further increase the Irish language\u2019s presence on screen outside of Ireland.<\/p>\n
Supported by Ard\u00e1n, WRAP, TG4, \u00dadar\u00e1s na Gaeltachta, Galway City Council, and Galway County Council in Ireland and Screen Wellington, M\u0101oriland, and the New Zealand Film Commission in New Zealand, the Cities of Film Exchange is part of a wider development to empower indigenous language communities as they tell their own stories on screen and to provide support for those stories to reach the widest possible audience.<\/p>\n
Growth of indigenous language production<\/strong><\/p>\n
The Indigenous Animation Exchange is focussed on talent development with its first recipients being Gaelgeoir Siobh\u00e1n N\u00ed Thuarisg, from Co. Galway, and Te Reo M\u0101ori speaker Seth Parata Stewart, from New Zealand\u2019s North Island.<\/p>\n
In March, Siobh\u00e1n, an animator at Telegael, was in Wellington and \u014ctaki to provide support to M.A.T.C.H. (M\u0101oriland Tech Creative Hub) participants, to attend the Wellington Animation Festival and M\u0101oriland Festival, and to speak with students at Massey University and YooBee College.<\/p>\n
In May, Seth, from \u014ctaki in M\u0101oriland \u2013 the New Zealand equivalent of a Gaeltacht \u2013 was in Ireland attending Telegael (Connemara), Studio Meala (Roscommon), and Little Moon Animation (Dublin) to shadow and observe Irish language content creation in a professional setting.<\/p>\n
Funding schemes supporting indigenous language film production are on the rise, and streaming services now carry larger numbers of non-English language programming. Ireland has not been unaffected by this industrial shift, as witnessed by the success of CR\u00c1, Kneecap, and the Oscar- nominated An Cail\u00edn Ci\u00fain. The Exchange now positions animation as a medium, making its own linguistic leap forward, with Irish and Te Reo M\u0101ori in the vanguard.<\/p>\n
Tanya Black, manager of Screen Wellington and Wellington City of Film, is thrilled to see a programme prioritising indigenous storytellers and their language. \u201cThe Exchange is an important conversation starter between language communities and between the AV industry in different nations,\u201d she said. \u201cThe impact of Siobh\u00e1n and Seth\u2019s experience is playing a real part in helping elevate Irish and Te Reo M\u0101ori original content internationally, while also creating a foundation for others to build upon.\u201d<\/p>\n
Co-production as key to sustainability<\/strong><\/p>\n
The Exchange\u2019s benefits were not just individual or linguistic, but will be felt across the wider Irish film, TV, and animation industry, as it involved meetings and visits from leading figures in the New Zealand AV industry.<\/p>\n
During the Exchange, Libby Hakaraia and Maddy de Young (M\u0101oriland), Tanya Black (Wellington City of Film\/Screen Wellington), Chris Payne (New Zealand Film Commission), and Bevin Linkhorn (New Zealand Film Commission), met with Irish screen industry stakeholders at Animation Ireland, TG4, Screen Ireland, and Screen Producers Ireland, as well as other local producers. The meetings involved discussions on collaboration opportunities, co-production possibilities, co-funding potential, and challenges when it comes to creative IP and AI.<\/p>\n
\u201cIreland and New Zealand share a rich storytelling tradition and common creative values,\u201d said Chris Payne, Head of Co-Production and Incentives at the New Zealand Film Commission. \u201cBoth our cultures treasure the spoken and written word, passed down through generations and champion authenticity and community. Our co-production treaty has been in place for nearly 20 years, and a key part of this longevity are the deep relationships NZFC has developed with Screen Ireland and the Irish industry, borne out by co-produced feature films such as Come to Daddy and Evil Dead Rise, and TV series, The Gone, now in its second season. The recent Cities of Film Animation Exchange and the resulting visits to TG4 in Connemara allow NZFC to build on this strategic connection between our island nations.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ireland and New Zealand \u2013 a new partnership<\/strong><\/p>\n
For smaller nations like Ireland and New Zealand, international co-productions are essential in allowing access to diverse markets; wider funding streams; shared resources of location, expertise, and financing; and facilitating cultural reciprocation. The Exchange has now emerged as another vital force in the Irish AV industry\u2019s drive to find new markets and collaborations.<\/p>\n
During Siobh\u00e1n\u2019s residency in New Zealand in March, Ard\u00e1n CEO, Alan Duggan, was also in the country, showcasing Ireland to industry professionals at the Wellington Animation and M\u0101oriland film festivals. He was also on a panel with the New Zealand Film Commission, discussing co-productions with Ireland, and Alan and Siobh\u00e1n visited local NZ studios.<\/p>\n
The resulting meetings with agencies and producers revealed significant interest in collaboration with Ireland and Gaeilgeor\u00ed in talent development and production, and across areas of mutual interest.<\/p>\n
Collaboration \u2013 next steps<\/strong><\/p>\n
Through its management of the Galway UNESCO City of Film designation; WRAP; and the chairing of the Western AV Forum industry collective, Ard\u00e1n is in a strong position to assist development of cultural collaborations and coproductions between Ireland and New Zealand.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe bonds forged have already been exemplary in showcasing the creative potential between the Western Region in Ireland and our New Zealand partners,\u201d said WRAP Executive Gar O\u2019Brien-Collins. \u201cWe are excited to lay the groundwork for an ambitious co-production partnership that celebrates and elevates our indigenous languages and shared cultures on screen.\u201d<\/p>\n
That process has already begun. Last week, New Zealand Film Commissioners were given tours by the Ard\u00e1n and WRAP team of Galway locations as sites for possible co-productions, while the New Zealand Embassy and Screen Wellington hosted a showcase with Irish and New Zealand producers in Dublin to celebrate this bilateral collaboration.<\/p>\n
The success of the exchange continues to be spotlighted in France this June at the Annecy Animation Film Festival and then in Paris on the Showcase Stage at the UNESCO Creative Cities AGM.<\/p>\n
\u201cInternational collaboration and connection in the screen sector are more important than ever,\u201d said Ard\u00e1n CEO and Galway City of Film Director Alan Duggan. \u201cSafeguarding and support for independent film and audiovisual creation is vital to prevent it from being overwhelmed by AI and global monopolies, so indigenous culture and creativity can flourish, and democratic access to diverse stories for the screen can continue.\u201d<\/p>\n\nAnimation Meitheal: Alan Duggan (Ard\u00e1n), Maddy de Young, Seth Parata Stewart, and Libby Hakaraia (M\u0101oriland), Jules N\u00ed Chonchobhair (Creative Europe Media Desk).
