ACM SIGGRAPH Asia is holding its first Thesis Fast Forward program at SIGGRAPH Asia 2019 to provide more young presenters with a platform for sharing innovative ideas and gaining valuable exposure.

The key components of the submission will be 1) a three-minute video presentation by the candidate and 2) an abstract, explaining the central theme of their thesis. The intent is to make the presentation accessible to a non-expert audience, representative of the typical cross-section of SIGGRAPH ASIA conference attendees.

Based on the video submissions and provided abstracts, a jury will select candidates who will be asked to perform three-minute oral presentations live at a special session at SIGGRAPH ASIA 2019. A panel of experts will provide immediate commentary after each live presentation and select a best performance. The live presentations will be judged solely on the content of the live three-minute presentation.

More information on the session details will be revealed soon. Stay tuned!
