The organizers of the international festival of motion design, "Mouvo", held for the first time in Prague in 2016, promised that the main aim of the event would be presenting and "defining motion design as something more than mere graphics in motion". Those who attended can testify that the promise was fulfilled. The event, organized in March 2016 in La Fabrika and to be repeated on February 17, 2017 in the Archa theatre, displayed works by the most outstanding figures in the field. The issues of animated text and image, internet videos, TV idents, film subtitles and other aspects were discussed by the top designers who cooperate with film, TV and art commissioners. The Prague studio Oficina was behind the festival's concept and organization. Motion design is a young discipline which is, however, developing rather rapidly. The organizational, conceptual and, last but not least, creative activity which Oficina – the leader in the field of motion design in the Czech lands, established by Lukáš Fišárek, Marek Cimbálník and Vlaďka Cimbalníková – jointly develops, therefore definitely deserves acknowledgement, rightly received in the form of this nomination.
