Motion Graphics Festival History
Chicago MGFest 2009 : Jan 20-25
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 MGFest 2009 : March 5-8
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 MGFest 2009 : May 12-22
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.
