Kaboom 2026: Yass Queen! Réka Bucsi

Over a career marked by three Oscar® nominations and a haul of BAFTAs and Emmys, Joanna has redefined the animated form.

poster Kaboom Animation Festival 2026

From her 1987 debut Girls Night Out to her hit Affairs of the Art, her work has remained a bold celebration of the female body and a sharp exploration of gender politics, often centred around her iconic, working-class heroine, Beryl. In the masterclass, Joanna will share practical insight into her life as a leading woman in the industry, discussing the obsession and the patience required to reach the pinnacle of the craft. Attendees will go behind the scenes through a showcase of original artwork and clips, culminating in a live animation demonstration on stage. This is a unique opportunity to witness the technique, humour, and talent of a true master.
