Question 1

What is CLAP?

Accepted Answer

CLAP is a directory of the animation industry: artists, studios, schools, jobs, events and festivals in one place. You can browse everything without an account. Signing up lets you save what you find, apply to jobs and track your applications.

Question 2

Is it free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Creating a profile, browsing the directory, job alerts and application tracking are all free today, and the directory itself will stay free.

Question 3

How do job alerts work?

Accepted Answer

Set the skills on your profile and we check the new openings from the studios we track. Every morning at 7am your time you get one email with the jobs that match you. If nothing matches, we send nothing.

Question 4

How do I appear in the directory?

Accepted Answer

Create an account and set up your profile. Artists, studios and schools all register the same way, and public profiles show up in search right away.

Question 5

I'm already listed. How do I claim my profile?

Accepted Answer

Open your profile and use the claim button. We review every claim, and once we can verify it's you, the profile becomes yours to edit.

Question 6

How do I remove a listing?

Accepted Answer

Every listing has a "Request removal" option. Tell us why, we verify it and take the listing down. If you prefer email, write to us and we'll handle it the same way.

Question 7

What are tracked reel links?

Accepted Answer

Instead of sending your reel as a plain file, you send a unique link with each application. You see if it was opened, how much was watched and where they stopped, so you know what to improve.

Question 8

I have another question.

Accepted Answer

Write to us at hello@clapanimation.com. We read everything.
