The 33rd International Conference on Computer Animation and Social Agents (CASA 2020) will be held in September, 2020 in Bournemouth, UK. The conference is organized by Bournemouth University together with the Computer Graphics Society (CGS). CASA is the oldest international conference in computer animation and social agents in the world. It was founded in Geneva in 1988 under the name of Computer Animation (CA). In the past few years, CASA was held in Belgium (2007), Korea (2008), Netherlands (2009), France (2010), China (2011), Singapore (2012), Turkey (2013), United States (2014), Singapore (2015), Switzerland (2016), Korea (2017), China (2018) and France (2019).

CASA 2020 will provide a great opportunity to interact with leading experts, share your own work, and educate yourself through exposure to the research of your peers from around the world.
