Agenda (subject to change)
------------------------------
6:45- 7:15PM - Stump the Gurus
Join FCP Gurus Steve Martin and special guest Gurus,
Christine Steele and Shane Ross as they will attempt
to answer all of your questions and solve all of your
problems concerning FCP. If they can't solve your
problem or answer your How 2, then you go home with a
problem but you still got out of the house, so that's
not a bad thing.
7:20PM - 7:45PM - "Color Correction in Final Cut Pro"
-Steve Martin
Ripple Trainings Steve Martin will show off their
brand new training DVD, "Color Correction in Final Cut
Pro" and give us a few tips and tricks on how to get
started with the Color Corrector.
7:50PM - 8:15PM - Storyboard Artist - Fred Gallo
A powerful tool and a must have tool for any Indy
filmmaker who needs to get organized before you shoot
and you better be organized. Storyboard Artist is an
easy to use "pre-vis" tool for those of us who can't
draw but can see
. Director Fred Gallo will show us how
he uses SBA with Final Cut Pro.
8:20PM -8:45PM - Filemaker Pro 8 Untitled - Ramy
Katrib
Ramy Katrib of DigitalFilm Tree in Hollywood will demo
what only can be described as a digital replica of the
organizational methods Walter Murch uses for his
movies he edits. Built using Filemaker Pro 8, this
product is still in development but deserves to be
seen. It is very cool and I'm sure you will find it
very useful.
8:45PM - 9:05PM - Break
This is a chance to hang out and meet and greet and
get your problems solved. Steve Martinwill be in the
Lobby selling his latest training DVDs from Ripple
Training. Filemaker Pro wil also be in the lobby
answering questions.
Intelligent Assistance will also be in Lobby selling
their latest creations, and talking about the new Pro
Apps Hub. Snacks and Beer and Wine will be on sale in
the lobby. Proceeds go to the Gallery Theater. Oh, and
a special surprise; Dancing monkeys.
9:05PM - 9:25PM - Converting HDV to SD 4:3 - Philip
Hodgetts
What do you get when you mix one Yogi Marlon, two Sony
HDV Z1U cameras, a couple of hundred hours editing in
HD and a creative approach to 4:3 SD conversion? You
get "Yoga for couch Potatoes", a lot of experience
with HDV editing, a longing for a Quad G5 and a great
DVD ready for distribution now, that's future proofed
for when HD distribution becomes available.
8:30PM -9:55PM - Show and Tell - Ted Bonnitt
From Ted:
We'll show a new short film directed by Ted Bonnitt.
It's Ted's first movie since his feature documentary
"Mau Mau Sex Sex."
It was shot on 35mm film, edited on FCP and mastered
to HDSR 4:4:4. He'll briefly offer some road-proven
tips on getting the enormous color space of a 4:4:4 DI
master successfully down-res'd to a color corrected
DVD. Not as easy as you'd think.
9:55PM - 10:05PM - World Famous Raffle
