Laura Welsman is our Development and Placements Manager at Cardiff Animation. She travelled over to Japan to represent CAF during the in-person portion of the CAF x New Chitose Airport international Animation festival Collaboration. Laura has kindly written a blog post to give us an insight into her time over in Japan, here's what she had to say! If you've ever wanted to know what it feels like to live in an airport, the annual New Chitose Airport International Animation Fest

Asaki Nishino is the designer of the poster for the Cardiff Animation Festival x New Chitose Airport International Animation Festival collaboration. We wanted to get to know her and her experience in the animation scene in Japan a little better, and to spotlight the amazing art that she creates, so we asked her some questions all about her work. We hope you love getting to know Asaki as much as we did! 1. Can you tell us a bit about yourself and how you got into animation? He
