MGFest 2009 Tour

Each city has a unique, regionally-focused program of events.

 


 

Chicago MGFest 2009Chicago IL : Jan 20-25, 2009

Chicago is the heart of the Motion Graphics Festival's tour. The entire schedule begins amidst Chicago's January and debuts all the festival has to offer, right in the backyard of the globe's largest advertising & media companies, and top-rated ivy league art school. MGFest presents Chicago's best artists to the country's most representative demographic.

 


 

Cambridge, MassCambridge Mass : March 5-8, 2009

Cambridge is the spirited, slightly mischievous side of Boston. In the cross-roads between counter-culture, classic culture, and multi-culture appears a fierce drive to create innovation. The festival celebrates only a small percentage of what this city has to offer.

 

 


 

Austin TexasAustin Texas: May 12-22, 2009

Austin is a small liberal town in the middle of a large conservative state. South by Southwest calls Austin home because the city heavily collects creatives in the fields of Film, Technology, and Music; the same three threads of study in the Motion Graphics Fest.


 


 

AtlantaAtlanta Georgia : July 8-12, 2009

Home of broadcast’s most resilient brands and most dramatic creative upstarts: CNN, The Weather Channel and Aqua Teen Hunger Force, among others. The New York of the South knows what people want to see.

 


 

Washington DCWashington DC : Nov 19-22, 2009

The nation's political capital is necessarily a media capitol, and DC contains media designers with the greatest attention to detail and the art of persuasion. The festival unites creative professionals across the divides of genre and explores what really works in motion design.
