Create animations for screening on the Lantern. See the guidelines for developing and contributing your work!
Contribute
The Lantern is available for artists to develop and screen artistic content. We are continually looking for people interested in developing content and would welcome anyone to contribute to this fantastic art space.
If you are interested, keep track of this website or follow the Lantern on Twitter or Facebook, for upcoming workshops and calls to artists.
If you’d like to try developing some animations, download the Lantern Simulator to get a feel for the actual display.

Guidelines
Animations should ideally have a story or theme, or add visual interest for passersby. Content should not have a commercial angle (no advertising) and should be family-friendly.
The Lantern supports millions of colours, although some lighter shades get distorted due to the grey panels. Final animations must be provided in MOV format, at a resolution of 680x420 pixels at 25 frames/second.
