About MDX
Updated
MDX (Motion Design Xperience) is a home for Africa's technical creatives: motion designers, visual designers, animators, illustrators, 3D and VFX artists, creative technologists, and everyone working where creativity meets technology.
MDX exists to help African creatives connect, learn, create, contribute, get recognized and grow.
Where MDX comes from
MDX started as a Nigerian motion design community. It has grown into a network, with communities in Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, Accra and online: a place to meet people, share work and find what comes next.
What you can do here
- Show your work. Build a profile and a portfolio of projects, with credit for everyone who made them.
- Enter the MDX Awards. Weekly awards in each discipline, judged by members and a jury. Each week's winners go on to the monthly awards.
- Read the Journal. Stories, interviews, guides and behind-the-scenes episodes from the community.
- Come to events. Hangouts, workshops and online sessions with people who do what you do.
- Join the Roster. A directory of African technical creatives, curated by MDX.
- Get featured. Offer a piece of your work for MDX's channels.
How recognition works
Badges are chosen by MDX curators, never voted on or scored. Awards are decided in the open: members and a jury vote, and the scoring is explained on every award page.
