2026 International VFX and GD Conference Bratislava

IVGC Bratislava 2026 - Visual Effects Transformations VII

IVGC is a two-day international conference organized by the Visual Effects and Game Design Department of the Film and Television Faculty of the Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts in Bratislava every year in April. It is the 13th continuation of the VFX Department's activities in the search for the development of visual effects and the 7th continuation , which strives for an international level of interpreted scientific knowledge in VFX and GD. It takes place simultaneously as a face-to-face and distance meeting of students via video conference connection using the MS TEAMS program.

This year, IVGC took place on April 16-17, 2026.
The conference is intended primarily for students of VFX and GD study programs at schools operating in Europe, but also for external amateur or professional interested parties in both the domestic and international contexts.
The language of communication is English.
The task is to introduce participants, create opportunities for future collaborations, and inform not only participants but also any interested parties about the current level of VFX and GD in Europe.

The conference event is aimed at international collaborations between the FilmEU+ association of 8 European universities.

The presentations are recorded in the TEAMS program and the conference is streamed live on the YouTube channel with a 360° camera.
After editing, individual video contributions are shared via the WEB pages: www.avfx.sk , www.ahd.avfx.sk and through the websites of participating foreign schools. The presentations are available to a wide professional public.

The conference is complemented by the production of an electronic written document, the IVGC 2025 Proceedings, which is a written visual recording of the individual presentations of both conference days. The Proceedings also include contributions that were not presented at the videoconference presentations, but are an important perspective on the professional and pedagogical environment of VFX and GD in the world.
