Place: Venetian
Cost: $100

Last year over a hundred and twenty five senior users gathered to hear speakers from around the world discuss and illustrate advanced concepts in Inferno and Flame visual effects…
and this year we do it all over again – with new material and new tricks.

Who should go?
This training is aimed at experienced users…artists very familiar with the software as it stands today (pre-5.5/8.5). It is ideal for freelancers and experienced compositors who want to get up to speed very quickly with the new tools such as Masterkey, and the new project management/workflow solutions. Its also a great opportunity for those who haven’t upgraded their software to see what they’re missing !

What will it cover?
It will cover a range of special tips and workflow management issues aimed at allowing senior users to produce exceptional visual effects. It will not cover system admin or configuration issues. The training will be fast and high level, with secondary training aids (see below).
The session is all-new and will include 5.5/8.5 – specific tips and tricks including an in-depth look at the Master Keyer, LUTs, etc as well as some great guest speakers from around the world.

What do I get for the conference fee?
The conference will be three hours with the fxguide crew showing exactly how to get the most out of the new software. You will also get a CD with batch and action setups – with some complex examples and cool tricks, hot key and ‘cheat sheet’ notes, software breakdowns.

Are numbers limited?
Yes. Due to space considerations, numbers will be limited. Last year sold out and we expect to sell out again this year.

We look forward to seeing you in Las Vegas on April 18th, and we’d like to thank Discreet and SGI for their generous support.
