VIEW Conference: da Michael Giacchino a Brad Bird, tutti gli ospiti della ventesima edizione!

Mancano ormai pochi giorni all'inizio della VIEW Conference, il principale evento italiano dedicato alla computer grafica che quest'anno si terrà dal 21 al 25 ottobre a Torino, ed è venuto il momento di scoprire tutti gli ospiti.

Dall'anno scorso la manifestazione, che di anno in anno è cresciuta sempre di più, si è spostata alle Officine Grandi Riparazioni (OGR), una location in grado di ospitare una lineup di ospiti sempre più ambiziosa che animano una gran quantità di eventi tra keynote, masterclass, workshop e panel. Parliamo di nomi di altissimo profilo del mondo del cinema e della televisione tra animazione, videogiochi, effetti visivi e altro ancora.

Uno degli ospiti più attesi è Michael Giacchino, compositore di alcune delle colonne sonore più amate degli ultimi anni e che terrà un concerto il 21 ottobre dalle 21:00 alle 23:00. Il Visionary Award di quest'anno, poi, verrà consegnato a Ralph Eggleston, una delle colonne portanti della Pixar.

I nomi coinvolti sono tantissimi: da Brad Bird a Rob Legato, passando per Conrad Vernon, Peter Ramsay, Jill Culton, Dean DeBlois, Glenn Entis, Hal Hickel, Glen McIntosh e Tom Wujec.
