The important factor of research in the field of production organization and creative development of animation in the formal and non formal learning. Challenges and convergences

Abstract

This paper examines the role of research in the organization of production and the creative development of animation within formal and non-formal learning contexts. Despite significant differences in organizational structures and pedagogical approaches, research emerges as a common and fundamental factor in both learning environments. It functions as the core of the learning process by supporting each stage of production, fostering skill development, and actively engaging learners through an academic framework upon which creative outcomes are developed. The study adopts a qualitative comparative methodology based on an extensive literature review. The findings indicate that while research operates across different levels and dimensions depending on whether the learning context is formal or non-formal, its foundational principles remain consistent in both settings.
