A message from FITC:
“We’ve also kicked off our annual Women at FITC Toronto initiative. We know that there are talented women out there doing amazing work in the digital space and we want to make sure these women are represented at FITC Toronto 2012, so we’re giving away 50 FREE festival tickets to females who are willing to get creative in the name of FITC. ”
Entry details can be found at fitc.ca/women. Deadline for entry is March 16, 2012. Good luck!
On November 24th, FITC will be announcing a new brand and a totally redesigned logo by one of their talented speakers. They are also giving away five VIP passes, which gives five people the chance to experience every FITC event in 2012 for just sending a tweet.
Why?
For the past ten years, FITC has stayed true to its core mission: to inspire, educate, connect and challenge digital creators. In order to do so, the topics and technologies covered at their events have radically changed and continue to.
So when people ask us, “what does FITC stand for?†it’s a hard question to answer because they have outgrown the original words behind the acronym, ‘Flash in the Can.’ FITC has played host to events in and outside of Canada, covering a whole lot more than Flash for a long time now.
FITC has evolved into a brand which is embraced by digital creators around the world for playing host to innovative speakers, who share the latest in technology and the creative things being done with it. They wanted the name to capture that, so they came up with four words which represent what their company and the events they host are about – all will be revealed November 24th.
FITC VIP pass giveaway.:
To enter, all contestants need to do is tweet @FITC, using hashtag #fitcevolution with what FITC means to them.
For example, an entry could look like: @FITC stands for: Fun. Interactive. Techy. Challenging. #fitcevolution
They will be randomly selecting three winners, as well as the most creative and for the funniest entry, giving away a total of five VIP passes. Entries will be accepted until midnight on November 23rd.
Congrats to Dallas McCluske (Pittsburgh, PA) and Nicholas Low (Toronto, ON) the winners of the draw for the tickets to FITC 2011 Toronto!
“This year, FITC is the closest design conference to Pittsburgh, PA – where I work as a Flash Developer and Interface Designer. FITC seems like a ton of fun and a great way to network and meet other people who share the same passion as me. Some of the speakers there have spoken at FlashPITT (our local Flash conference which isn’t happening this year). I find their designs and coding experiments to be very inspiring because they remind me of how to have fun while having a successful career at the same time.”
Dallas McCluske

Also the line up of speakers this year looks very promising, some great agencies are represented there.”
