VES News: VES Celebrates SIGGRAPH 2024

By NAOMI GOLDMAN

The VES celebrated its global community with VES members from around the world at a high-energy VES SIGGRAPH mixer on July 30th in downtown Colorado, co-hosted with SideFX.

SIGGRAPH is the premiere conference and exhibition on computer graphics and interactive techniques worldwide. The annual conference has ushered in new breakthroughs, bolstered a community of perpetual dreamers, and mapped a future where exponential innovation isn’t just possible – it’s inevitable.

VES members from around the globe and their guests gathered at the festive mixer during the conference to meet fellow members and colleagues who are at the forefront of visual effects, computer graphics, digital art, animation, new realities, artificial intelligence, research and more. The hugely popular event, free to VES members, gave SIGGRAPH attendees the opportunity to enjoy one of the many benefits that the VES offers its global membership.
