Note

The selection and allocation of creator tickets is carried out by the festival team in accordance with this policy. Even if the requirements are met, there is no entitlement to accreditation.

e.g. reporting, interviews, photo/video production, community meet-up, event promotion

e.g. https://www.instagram.com/animekassel/

Please specify the total number of people actively involved in content creation (e.g. camera, moderation, photography, editing, social live posting). Accompanying persons are not permitted. In case of implausible information, we reserve the right to refuse additional tickets.

Please list all names and their role on site (e.g. Max Müller – camera, Anna Schmidt – moderation). The information must match the previously stated number of participants. For creators whose real name should not be disclosed, you may use the official alias under which they appear publicly online.

If you have an official press ID card, please upload it here. Uploading the press ID usually allows us to accredit you directly. A copy of the ID of the main responsible person on site is sufficient. Allowed file formats: jpg | png | pdf
