Summer is over and its back to learning. Join us as we welcome the magical CineXinsert, Cinedeck’s stand-alone, file-to-file insert edit application.

Also GoPro Entertainment will be presenting. They will talk about how you can get paid for your best GoPro content through two of GoPro’s latest programs: GoPro Awards and Content Licensing!

Plus much more.

***************************************************************
Now that LACPUG, DMALA and the Gallery Theatre have a new projector, we
are selling the old Sanyo PLC-XF35NL projector. Cost is only $1200 OBO. I have
just had it checked out by Tek Media Group in Burbank and it is in good working
condition.

This projector is perfect for large conference rooms and/or churches and more
large spaces. It’s only been used a few times a month for 12 years at the Gallery
Theatre in Hollywood. I prefer local pick up only.

More information on this projector can be found here:
