A conference, Hello World, runs alongside the festival, and features top names from the global digital community.

Hello Digital includes Channel 4's 4Talent Digital Inspiration Sessions which will include talks from industry giants including; Michal Makarewicz from Pixar Animations who has worked on such features as The Incredibles, Cars, Ratatouille & WALL•E, Andrew Proctor, is the Art Director for Aardman Animations, Robert Wulff-Cochrane who is Channel 4's Head of Drama Development and brought programmes like Fallout, Boy A and Skins to our screens and Dan'l Hewitt who is Director of Digital Content for international social networking site Bebo.
