Next Meeting Tuesday, June 24th

Thanks to all of those who attended the Photoshop workshop last month! Also, a special thanks to Guy Ivie and Alex Dutton who both gave a presentation to everyone. The next meeting will be on the 24th of June. I am taking suggestions on classes you would like to see so I can arrange a workshop for June's meeting.

Full Sail student in the house!

My friend Bo just got back from spending some time at Full Sail. If you are unfamiliar with that college, it is a very awesome school in southern Florida that trains students to the 9 in various aspects of production. Needless to say, Bo will probably kick our butts at Photoshop, so if there is someone that keeps giving better tips in the group during our Photoshop meeting, and if that person looks way too young to know all that stuff, that would be Bo! Thanks for joining up Bo! We're happy to have you!

Change of meeting date!

Even though we will hold our meetings on the 3rd Tuesday of the month, the first Multimedia User Group meeting the month of May will actually be held on Tuesday May 13th. Sorry for the inconvenience but I believe I am going to be out of town the 3rd week of May and I want to cover my bases so I can give enough head up about the new date!

We also roped in two new members! I'd like to welcome Jennifer and David who are contractors for Mac B. The do amazing eLearning course work along with computer programming and are great at Flash! It's awesome to have you both!
