Our London art event

Industry-leading 2D and 3D artistic talent join the line-up at the ultimate CG creators event, which is now bigger than ever!

-

Don’t miss our biggest 2D and 3D art festival! Join Karla Ortiz, Lois Van Baarle and more in London in February!

Vertex, the annual conference for 2D and 3D artists, returns for a third time in 2020. Taking place at London’s Olympia Conference Centre on 27 and 28 February, the two-day event will feature inspiring talks from industry pros, portfolio reviews, networking opportunit­ies, artist demonstrat­ions and much more.

This will be the first time that Vertex is spread across two days. And to kick things off there’ll be a presentati­on from Pixar in the evening, where the legendary studio will discuss how it utilises its proprietar­y Renderman technology to create its world-leading animated films.

Shortly after this there will be an animation panel, followed by a drinks reception with a twist as guests are asked to BYOA: bring your own animation. This will be a chance for attendees to get valuable feedback on their showreels from industry pros. This is an opportunit­y to benefit from world-leading creative insight – you won’t want to miss it.

Meanwhile, day two will feature workshops from leading studios and artists, including Karla Ortiz, Lois Van Baarle, Even Mehl Amundsen, Beeple, Izzy Burton, games studio Media Molecule and many more

“I couldn’t be more excited about Vertex 2020,” says one of the Vertex organisers, and Imaginefx editor, Claire Howlett. “We’re aiming for our biggest and most inspiring event yet. I already know it’s going to be one hell of a show, just by looking at the stellar line-up of big-name artists!”

You can book your tickets for Vertex 2020 now by visiting www.vertexconf.com. Entry to the exhibition – which includes life drawing and artist demos – is free, while passes to talks and workshops start from £25, or £12 for students.
