And that’s no exaggeration. If you’ve ever heard the saying: The cobbler’s children have no shoes – it’s true. It’s been ten years – yes, count ‘em – since we’ve updated our website.

So, just what we have been up to during this time? Designing, creating, moving and shaking, problem solving, exploring, playing . . . and in between – living ‘la vida loca‘ (literally!).

So…here’s the story. Four years ago our direction shifted dramatically. A bit of history, to understand why… Over the years, we attended a variety of industry related conferences and events. Each of them had bits and pieces of content we really enjoyed. But inevitably, we’d always return to ABQ thinking – ‘wouldn’t it have been great if there had been more focus on concept and creativity rather than software and training?‘

Long story short – a series of circumstances led us to conceive and produce our very first motion – which has since become an annual event for the motion graphics, visual effects, and animation industries focusing on – you guessed it – concept, creativity, and inspiration.

Some say that ‘necessity is the mother of invention‘. Funny thing is, in our case, ‘naiveté and passion were the mother of invention‘. And to be crystal clear…the next time anyone tells you that producing an event is easy – don’t believe it!

The past four years have been filled day and night with everything that makes motion the amazing event it is.

It’s been quite a ride. And most of it, has been absolutely wonderful. We’ve worked with amazingly creative people in the motion picture and broadcast industries, met hundreds of talented professionals attending our event, and showcased the work of brilliant students who might just be the future industry superstars.

And why are we saying all of this? To let you know that that zocoloco | studios is on hiatus for the time being. When we return, be prepared to be amazed by the new, dynamic design we’ve been dreaming up.

In the meantime, make sure to check out what we are doing.
