This is a message to all motion-designers of the world! Held annually in Moscow since 2012, Typomania Moscow International Festival is the major event to know this summer.

This highly curated cultural and educational project, totally dedicated to typography, calligraphy, lettering, motion-design and interactive design is focused on the letter, the word and everything in between bringing an animated notion to the visual language which surrounds us.

During the festival the visitors can attend poster and book exhibitions, lectures and workshops with Russian and international guests that define the graphic design and typographic scene circa 2019.

Typomania's typographic video competition is one of the key events of the festival. This dedicated to animated typography contest exists from the very beginning of the festival with hundreds of typographic infused videos competing annually for our attention.

Everyone is welcome to enter the contest with participants being designers, motion designers, cartoonists, students and professionals. If you are interested in being part of this typographic tour de force in Moscow do send your submissions till the 1st of May.

The curator of this year's video contest is Vasily Shikhachevsky and the best videos will be chosen by an international jury of experts.
