There is a staff of over 40 full-time employees working in the different CITIA departments as well as an artistic director for the Festival. This core team is enhanced by many temps and interns during the preparatory periods before the main events. During the Annecy Animation Film Festival and Market, the number rises to around a hundred salaried staff, interns and over 600 volunteers who work on the organisational team.

A two-phase mentorship was arranged for the artists: assistance with the script before they arrive, then an on-site mentorship dealing with the project’s graphic choices.
It is with immense sadness that the Festival team learned of the death, on 17th March 2023, of the Belgian filmmaker and illustrator Raoul Servais, Grand prix for best animated short film at Annecy for Nocturnal Butterflies.
This year, Annecy is adorned with the colours of Mexican animation.
