The 12th annual ACM/SIGGRAPH conference on Motion, Interaction and Games (MIG 2019, formerly Motion in Games) will take place in Newcastle upon Tyne, England, 28th - 30th October 2019.
The goal of the Motion, Interaction, and Games conference is to be a platform for bringing together researchers from interactive systems and animation, and have them present their most recent results, initiate collaborations, and contribute to the advancement of the research area. The program will consist of regular paper sessions for long and short papers, posters, and invided talks by a selection of internationally renowned speakers from Academia and the Industry.

We invite submissions of original, high-quality papers in any of the topics of interest (see above) or any related topic. Each submission should be 7-10 pages in length for a long paper, or 4-6 pages for a short paper. They will be reviewed by our international program committee for technical quality, novelty, significance, and clarity.
All of the accepted long and short papers will be presented during sessions at the conference. They will be archived in the ACM Digital Libraries with their own DOIs. All submissions will be considered for the Best Paper, Best Student Paper, and Best Presentation awards, which will be conferred during the conference.
Authors of selected best papers will be invited to submit extended and significantly revised versions to be considered for publication in a special section of IEEE Transactions on Visualizations and Computer Graphics (TVCG, Impact Factor 3.078), or of Computers & Graphics (C&G, Impact Factor: 1.200).
PostersWe also invite submissions of poster papers in any of the topics of interest (see above) or any related topic. Each submission should be 1-2 pages in length. Accepted posters will require that at least one representative attends the conference to present the poster in an open area.
All of the accepted posters will be archived in the ACM Digital Libraries with their own DOIs, and will be considered for the Best Poster awards, which will be conferred during the conference.
