International Women’s Day 2025

WOMEN IN VFX UNITED

By popular demand, we hosted a day of talks with some amazing women from our industry. Talk topics included leadership, technology, virtual production, parenting, creative processes and more!

This year’s IWD theme is #AccelerateAction – we have to be the change if we want to see change. We have a long way to go for equality so IWD and events like it are still needed. Part of our mission is to host and create more all-women talks until it’s part of the norm.

Above all we want to inspire future talent to find their ideal careers and help navigate the challenges along the way.

If you can see it you can be it!
