Welcome to Issue 203.

As you might know, I'm fascinated by event trailers. Two recently shared trailers on Instagram are worthwhile watching. The creativity, emotion, and storytelling speed are inspiring.

The first one is from Montreal-based motion designer Mélina Poiré for Motion Motion Festival in Nantes, France.

Second is from Milan-based NFT artist Riccardo Agostinelli. Together with Inertia Studios he brought Pinterest Creator Festival to life. Watch the video on Instagram

If you are interested in attending an animation or motion design events event, I've published an overview of all upcoming festivals around the world. It's called Animation and Motion Design Conferences to attend in 2022.
