From Flash to motion design, to design and creative inspiration, to other technologies like Flex, Air and processing, FITC events stand as unique and exciting events that educate, challenge, and inspire. It began as a Flash festival, and FITS has kept Flash at the core but has also continued to add more and more diverse presentations over the years, ever expanding the programming of our events.

What's it all about? Why should I go?

It starts with the presentations. 3 solidly packed days of presentations, both technical and creative. Presenters from around the world have been hand picked for their skill and talent, and all are eager to share and meet you. Most times, you will have 4 different presentations to choose from. It's also about the networking. Being able to meet and talk to people who share your passion for this industry. Meet them at the presentations, in the exhibitor hall, or at one of the evening parties. Did we mention the parties? FITC parties are legendary. Not that you should come just for the parties. But you could. If you really wanted to.

Who goes to an FITC event?

Flash designers and developers, motion graphic artists, digital artists, anyone in or having an interest in Flash and digital media. From technical presentations for the beginner, the intermediate, and the super advanced, to the inspirational creative sessions, there is always something to choose from in this 4 track, 2 day event.
