The vibe is casual and for all levels, so don't be scared! Usually feedback is the best way to grow as a creative. Bonus: The best pitch will win a free drink.
No tickets needed for this event, but just a drink from the bar to support the venue.

To get the most out of it, we recommend including:
• A short introduction about yourself.
• A brief explanation of your project and what you would like to accomplish with it. If you're looking for a collab, this will be a good moment to mention that as well
• What stage you're currently in.
• One or two specific questions you'd like feedback on.
• Don't forget your psychical product or digital product (we have a big screen available).Examples:
*"What's the first thing you notice when you see this photo?"
• "Does this character feel believable?" *"Which animation style works best?"
• "Is the story easy to follow?"
*"What emotions does this artwork evoke?" • "What would you improve?"76 attendees
