NewImages Festival

Digital creation and virtual worlds

5th edition: June 8-12, 2022
In real life, online and virtual!

Our philosophy

We believe that images should not only be watched and analyzed: now, they should be lived, felt and palpable.

Forward-looking and cutting-edge, NewImages Festival provides a fresh approach to innovative creative techniques.

Diving into the heart of immersion

As always, and through the lenses of content and artistic creation Newlmages Festival closely embraces all revolutions that transform and reinvent the art of storytelling. More than that: it goes beyond them.

Yesterday Newlmages Festival was a pioneer in the domain of virtual reality. Today it celebrates XR in all its diversity. What about tomorrow? Tomorrow, other formats will come, formats we may not be able to fathom yet… Mapping, binaural sound, and maybe more to come!

By proudly claiming this constantly evolving DNA, Newlmages Festival transforms from one edition to another, shaped by different innovations and with the intention to offer each time the best of new forms of narration.

Disrupt, discover, democratize

Taking place at the Forum des images and off-site, in the heart of Paris, online and on virtual platforms, NewImages Festival is, more than ever, a place for discovering new artistic perspectives and finding talent. Its aims and objectives are still the same: it is designed to spread new techniques and make new forms of creation accessible, enabling everyone to make them their own.

This broad-based and resolutely multifaceted approach to digital creation makes NewImages Festival an unmissable event, with something for everyone.

Hosted by the Forum des images (a cultural institution subsidized by Paris City Hall), NewImages Festival was born in January 2018, when the Paris Virtual Film Festival (created in June 2016) and l Love Transmédia (launched in 2011) merged into a single entity.
