Flash Brighton - how to make it as a Flash Freelancer May 22, 2007

It's 6.30, and you're still at your desk with your head down, slogging away, working for the man. Which is annoying because you didn't ever want to work for the man. You wanted to be free! And besides, you always thought that the man was a bit of an arse.

But don't worry, freedom can be yours! And Matthew Hare will tell you all about how to get there. He's FlashBrighton's very own rags-to-riches story, and over the last 18 months, his freelance career has been going from strength to strength. And he's gone from cleaning windows to producing Flash work for mighty clients like the BBC, Sony and Yahoo.

And he's very kindly agreed to come and tell us all how he did it.

Also : You may have noticed that there have been a lot of developments in the world of Flash. So we’re going to have an informal discussion about CS3, Flex and whether SilverLight really can turn Flash into the BetaMax of the internet. Have you worked with CS3, Flex or Silverlight? Bring along your work to show!

Spaces are strictly limited so please register here to ensure your space, and also to be eligible for a raffle ticket to win Adobe CS3 software!

Coming up on 29th May: Flash Film night! All the best animations from all around the world!
