Representation and diversity has always been an important part of the VIEW Conference agenda. This year, we are delighted to welcome as speakers Marge Dean and Jinko Gotoh, president and vice-president of the support and advocacy group Women in Animation. VIEW Conference is also proud to present Badass Women Production Designers, a panel featuring Daniela Strijleva (Luca), Lindsey Olivares (The Mitchells vs. The Machines), Kendal Cronkhite (Trolls World Tour), Celine Desrumaux (The Witch Boy) and Shannon Jeffries (Under the Boardwalk). Additional panels explore the role of women in production and the challenges of educating the next generation of women artists.



Acclaimed filmmakers dominate this year’s list of speakers, who not only give illuminating talks on their latest projects, but also lead lively panels alongside their complete creative teams. The films under discussion include recent hit animated features such as Luca, Vivo, Raya and the Last Dragon, The Boss Baby: Family Business, The Mitchells vs. The Machines, Space Jam 2, and The Addams Family 2, as well as the Netflix animated feature The Summit of the Gods and DreamWorks Animation’s Spirit Untamed, directed by VIEW Conference speaker Elaine Bogan. Extending the debate, filmmakers Peter Ramsey (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, We the People) and Shannon Tindle (Kubo and the Two Strings) lead a special panel The Art of Animation: A Director's Perspective.



Alongside its focus on feature films, VIEW Conference delves into the latest episodic series, with Love, Death + Robots creator Tim Miller and supervising director Jennifer Yuh Nelson joining their colleagues for a panel on the acclaimed sci-fi anthology series from Netflix. The creative team from Marvel Studios discusses the new animated superhero series What If…?, while other presentations reveal the stunning visual effects secrets of the Emmy Award-winning The Mandalorian and Marvel Studios’ WandaVision.



Exploring more deeply the world of visual effects, VIEW Conference presents a pair of panels with the shared title The Future of VFX, featuring leading VFX supervisors including Roger Guyett, Paul Franklin, Rob Legato, Sheena Duggal and Christopher Townsend. Industrial Light & Magic’s chief creative officer Rob Bredow gives a presentation on the company’s innovative StageCraft technology, with yet more talks lifting the curtain on recent blockbusters such as Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Disney’s Jungle Cruise, and Christopher Nolan’s cerebral thriller Tenet, plus Weta Digital visual effects supervisor Guy Williams talking about The Suicide Squad. Fans of the old school are sure to enjoy panels featuring the teams behind the classic films Dragonheart and Independence Day.


There is even an opportunity to embrace the future with Pioneers in the VFX and Computer Graphics Industry, our forward-thinking panel about the next big thing: the Metaverse. This mind-expanding conversation brings together a group of computer graphics all-stars including Alvy Ray Smith, Mark Sylvester, Jeff Kleiser, Carl Rosenthal, Don Greenberg and Richard Kerris.
