Best of Type in Motion

10.09. – 11.09.2015 / Eyes & Ears Academy, Unterföhring
Eyes & Ears of Europe

Writing, images and sound – the composition of these three elements determines whether motion design works or not. During the two-day Eyes & Ears Academy at ProSiebenSat.1 TV Deutschland in Unterföhring, intros, music videos, TV design, promotion spots, advertising spots and festival intros are presented and discussed. The examples are groundbreaking, impressive and stand out from the crowd. The prerequisite is the typographic and conceptual quality in the interaction between text, image and sound. At the end of the event, participants take home the best – as a personal knowledge base, as inspiration and as a possible starting point for their own work in the future.
