***3. ARTICLES AND THINGS YOU NEED TO READ AND DO
We just bought a Christie 2K Digital Cinema Projector for the Gallery Theatre, where we hold all of our monthly meets. Well, my credit card bought it.
This means no more fuzzy images when demoing software. This means crystal clear and bright videos. This means you and anyone who rents the Gallery Theatre can use this thing. Now we got to pay for it. Help us, please. If you are a FCPX user, buy FilmStyles from DVCreators and 50% off of all sales goes to lacpug to pay for the projector. Plus you get 25% off regular price. We only need 100 people to buy! So please buy and tell a friend. Lots of friends.
