Designers and Developers

Kerala Adobe User group was honoured to conduct an event at Amrita Institute, vallikkavu where the flex developers team were able to communicate with Adobe Professional Arul Kumaran. Arul was the one who motivated us to conduct this event even when he was only available for couple of days.

Aneesh anand from Amrita made all the arrangements in coordination with Kamal Bijilani of the E-learning team at Amrita.

The Venue, Amrita Institute.

Although it was 3 hours travel from ernakulam, we made it by starting early and hiring a taxi.

The Audience

Audience were mostly starters in Flex along with some expert project leads with Java background.

The Celebrity

Arul started with the history of flash and how the whole evolution happened. He took time to answer all the queries and also demonstrated his Open Source tools which can make life easier for any Flex developer.

The Support

I made myself available as support, mostly adding bits of information to what Arul was sharing. There was a small interacttive session on game development where I tried to answer queries on gaming and 3D in flash.

The Sight seeing.

Aneesh took us around the ashram and we had the chance to see the awesome seaside view from a multistoried building. It was breathtaking and all of us enjoyed the same. On the way back we talked a lot about technology and life in general. For me it was the chance to meet up with a great person who was really down to earth and eager to share experience, that mattered the most. End of the day I was a richer guy with a new friend and lots of professional information.
