Across two packed days, attendees heard from an exciting line-up of speakers representing some of the world’s leading motion design studios, including FIELD.IO, Cavalry, FutureDeluxe, Golden Wolf, Art&Graft, Ditroit, Tomorrow Bureau, and Builders Club. Presentations explored everything from creative workflows and studio culture to the latest innovations in design and animation. 

Alongside the talks, students took part in hands-on workshops with tools such as Cavalry, Touch Designer and Photoshop, gaining insights into professional practices while experimenting with new techniques. Portfolio reviews run by Pebble Studios offered direct feedback and networking opportunities, while student work created during the workshops was exhibited each evening.
