***4. LAS VEGAS SUPERMEET UPDATE.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Going to NAB? Then you must go to the SuperMeet. Only three weeks to go,
so get your tickets soon or chances are there will be none left. This year we
are back at the Rio Hotel in the Pavilion Ballroom on Tuesday April 19.
Tickets are on sale online only for the really cheap price of $15.00 each for
adults (plus ticket fee) and $10.00 each for Students and Teachers.
This SuperMeet will once again be the largest gathering of Final Cut, Avid,
Adobe, Resolve and VR digital filmmakers during NAB Show week. This is
YOUR party and it’s going to be a great one.
VR did you say? Yes indeed. We intend to show all you need to know to get
started with VR and 360 video content creation and we will start with the Nokia
Ozo Camera, and then move on to Post production. Much more about this soon.
What’s on the rest of the agenda? Well, it’s SuperSecret. BUT it will include
user driven presentations by Adobe, Blackmagic Design, HP/NVIDIA and OWC.
Oh, and then there is the World Famous Raffle. As of this writing the total value
of prizes is worth over $73,000 including a DaVinci Resolve Control surface worth
close to $30,000. Yikes!
The SuperMeet is the best networking event during NAB. Don't miss it.
Buy your ticket now and tell a friend!
