Unbox Mini Mixer #14 | Creative Get-together

Unbox Mini Mixer blends short, punchy conversations with easy networking and creative exchange.

As a prelude to the AniMela film festival, this edition features voices like Cyril, Upasana Nattoji Roy, and Munjaal Shroff, who will unpack their journeys, creative worlds, and the many ways animation travels across film, design, culture, and storytelling. Expect honest insights, behind-the-scenes thinking, and a room full of people who love the craft as much as you do.

Come for the conversations, stay for the vibes and kick off AniMela by meeting the community that brings it to life.
