Turin VIEW Conference

VIEW Conference 2019

We're recommending our students attend VIEW, the 20th International VFX & Computer Graphics Conference that takes place every year in Turin.

This year the conference runs from Monday 21st October until Friday 25th October.

I'll be there, participating in panel talks and also running a series of one-day masterclasses in Maya demonstrating character and creature animation techniques.

My class is aimed at complete beginners and requires no prior experience with Maya.

About VIEW
VIEW is an international festival for animation, VFX, and computer graphics; it takes place in Turin in October every year. It's a good deal smaller than its cousin at Annecy but the speakers are just as good; and, because the setting is more intimate; you have a much better chance of actually getting in to hear what they have to say - and even meet them afterwards.

Speakers this year at VIEW include Pixar's Brad Bird (Incredibles),  Conrad Vernon (Addams Family), Sergio Pablos (Klaus), Dean DeBlois (How to Train Your Dragon) and Ralph Egglestone (For the Birds). To see the full roster of talent appearing at this year's festival, follow this link.
