Wildwood Wins Best Animated Feature
LAIKA’s Wildwood, directed by Travis Knight, is the Best Animated Feature of the 2026 Tampa Animation Festival.
Wildwood opened the festival on Thursday, November 5, introduced by LAIKA Head of Animation and University of Tampa alumnus Brad Schiff to a full house at the Charlene A. Gordon Theater. Demand ran so high that we added an encore screening on closing night, Sunday, November 8.
Congratulations to Travis Knight, Brad Schiff and everyone at LAIKA, and thank you for bringing Wildwood home to Tampa.
