the superstars of motion.

motion speakers are the top creative thinkers and innovators in the industry. A concept borrowed from TED, each speaker is on stage for 20 minutes giving the talk of their life on subjects they’re passionate about. Topics that transform, and revolutionize. Issues, trends, innovations and ideas they share in spirit of the conceptual age: the more people who know the idea, the more powerful it becomes. 

motion speakers are renowned pros in the motion graphics, VFX and animation industries. Past speakers include: Andrew Orloff, VFX Supervisor/Creative Director at Zoic Studios, Karin Fong, Founder/Director/Designer at Imaginary ForcesEric Guaglione Head of Animation at Animal Logic, visionary screen designer, Mark Coleran, William Lebeda Creative Director at Picture Mill, Lauren Indovina Art Director at Psyop, legendary Disney animator and character designer, Dan Haskett, Michael Waldron Creative Director at nailgun*, HUD designer Stephen Lawes of Creative Cantina, Rod Basham VFX Supervisor at Imaginary Forces, Bryan Thombs Stereoscopic VFX Supervisor at Picture Mill, and motion designer Harry Frank, founder of graymachine.
