@miranda-hoover Yes it looks great. Looking forward to it. There's an illustrator/animator from the UK featured called Dan Woodger. He's worth checking out. https://conference.pictoplasma.com/2020/dan-woodger-2020/

I took the full hit today, just kept switching between the 2 channels. A totally wild mix of everything. Loving it.
Anyone else been watching?

I started watching the intro but had to stop due to other commitments. Looked good though. Loved the I Feel Love playing during the intro

@danielerossi I saw it's on Vimeo too. So I think you can watch day 1 there if you don't have time to watch it live. I'm back in today, just watched some brilliant animation shorts. Makes me want to get stuck in and make more animations.
