We’ve all seen them before and remember them vividly: compelling characters, absurd settings, and stunning creativity in short spots that stick with us for years. A panel of award-winning artists will gear up to discuss the ins and outs of the commercial animation industry, including working with ad agencies, maintaining artistic integrity, inevitable constraints and why they love it.

Featuring Steve Angel (Head Gear Animation), Bruce Alcock (Global Mechanic), Frank Falcone (Guru Studio), JJ Sedelmaier (JJ Sedelmaier Productions). Moderated by Richard O’Connor (Asterisk)
