Show us a picture / drawing of your sausage and WIN a FREE TICKET for "Animation Sucks #2" 😎 🤘
In case you’ve missed out on our sold out first edition, let us tell you’ve what you’ve missed. While sausages were consumed, Animade (UK), Woodwork (NL), Milana Karaica from th1ng (UK) and dwarf-drawer Jonas Geirnaert (BE) shared their knowledge on all things animated. And so did the attending creative industry. Embarrassingly enough, a great deal of them admitted to having no idea what the full potential of animation is. Luckily, we’ve cured them of their prejudices that animation is always quirky / cheap / simple and therefore not suitable for bigger ad campaigns or productions.
Today, attendees report on having much more confidence animation as a medium and recommending it to their clients in search of world domination. Mission accomplished, on to the next.
