The PSIAF started in 2017 and has been solely online since 2020. After this year's event, the Spellman, Passey, Hoff, and the other organizers at PSIAF hope to bring its events live and in person again in the future.

Some of the award winners from this year included Best Feature for 2024 "A Passenger from Ganora", a film from Iran by Ahmad Alamdar and Best Comedy for 2024 "Wild Eye Pub" by Filip Nerold (Czech Republic). Other winners included "Ashkasha" for Best Stop-Motion (Spain) Directed by Lara Maltz (Spain); and "Cinder" for Best First-Time Animators Directed by Carmen Maria and Stijn van der Plas (Netherlands).
