Stephen Van Else - Iloura (Melbourne, Australia)
There are lots of great things about being a guest speaker at a conference. You often get to travel to a new city - immersing yourself in your passion amongst a sea of enthusiasts. If the physical environment and the catering is as good as the crowd all the better!
Dean Poole - Alt Group (Auckland, New Zealand)
We like the social life of ideas, collaborating with other people, because the problem with working by yourself is the echo.
Danny Yount - Prologue Films (New York, USA)
The joy of conferences? Traveling and meeting great people. I need inspiration like everyone else so that’s what I like to do get re-energized. I also get to learn so much from the other presenters and sometimes see old friends.
Tin&ed / Tin Nguyen, Edward Cutting (Melbourne, Australia)
The most fun thing about being a speaker was meeting the other speakers and also meeting some of the audience afterwards!
Bryan Edmondson - SEA Design (London, UK)
The joy of conferences? The fun has to be the travel! The downside usually comes with the jet-lag. Presenting work for the first time is interesting – that gives me the opportunity to discuss the thoughts of new work and ideas.
Tim Kentley - XYZ Studios (Melbourne, Australia / New York, USA)
Tim Kentley founded XYZ in 2003 – "somewhat foolishly", he says. He had no training in animation and didn't know a single person in advertising.
