Level UP is a Paris-based association born from the desire to bring together professionals, creators, students, and enthusiasts who explore new technologies, real-time creation, and the uses of Unreal Engine. Since 2023, we have been building a regular gathering designed as a space for meeting, learning, and inspiration for all those who wish to evolve their practices in video games, animation, visual effects, virtual production, or interactive experiences.
Every third Wednesday of the month, we organize an event around a specific theme: workflow, production pipeline, art direction, animation, lighting, rendering, VFX, AI, UEFN, or technical methods related to real-time engines. Depending on the topic, our editions take the form of conferences, roundtables, live demonstrations, or feedback sessions, in order to offer accessible, concrete formats adapted to the community's needs.
Our ambition is to create a dynamic, welcoming, and stimulating environment where everyone can discover new approaches, ask questions, share their projects, and meet people from complementary professions. We pay particular attention to knowledge transfer: exchanges between speakers, artists, technicians, studios, schools, and curious individuals help to better understand the current challenges of digital creation and open up perspectives on tomorrow's practices.
In parallel with our monthly gatherings, we offer several times a year special "Power-Up" sessions, designed as more in-depth immersion times around recent techniques, tools, or innovations. These formats allow us to go further in experimentation, demonstration, and discussion, while strengthening ties within the creative ecosystem.
With Level UP, we aim to grow an open, passionate, and curious community where real-time becomes a common ground for exploration. Our mission is simple: facilitate the circulation of knowledge, encourage collaborations, and offer everyone the opportunity to level up, get inspired, and contribute to the evolution of creative technologies.
