World VFX Day will now be celebrated annually on 8 December around the world to recognise the achievements and contributions of the VFX community in the world of entertainment and beyond. The event was created in 2023 by a group of VFX studios, organisations and professionals to raise the profile of the VFX industry, promote unity and contribute to greater overall global recognition.

There will be live streamed talks, talks and panel discussions throughout the day from Victor Preez, Ian Failes in conversation with Joans Ussing (Space Office FX) and Paul Franklin (Dneg), the Ocean Tools from Important Looking PIrates, Unnreal in use at Framestore, Virtual Production Showcases and many more topics around the “human” side of VFX.

If you are in Munich (or Bavaria), you can watch the short presentations from all over the world live in the HFF cinema during the day from 9 am to 7 pm and in the evening from 7 pm there will be a get-together with VFX artists from Munich – snacks and drinks will be provided.
