NYC Adobe Event – May 29

Posted on Tuesday, May 20, 2008 in Adobe, Blogroll, Digieffects, GenArts, GridIron, Maxon Cinema 4D

Dennis Radeke is organizer of the Adobe event later this month on May 29 near B&H at the New Yorker Hotel’s Crystal Ballroom on the 2nd floor. There will be two sessions, 11am-3:30pm and 3:30pm-8pm.

From Dennis’ Blog, The Genesis Project:

Additionally, rather than have the event be static where you sit and we talk, it is a twofold event. In one area, you’ll have a large room where many of the vendors will present their products and workflows throughout the day in rapid fire 20 minute presentations. I hope that one of the highlights to these 20 minute demos will be a 20 minute technology preview demo of some stuff we’re working on that I think you will find VERY helpful.

The event will have onsite representation from Adobe, AJA, Blackmagic Design, B&H, CalDigit, DigiEffects, GenArts, GridIron, Matrox, Maxon, MOTU, Wacom and Zoomin Online (aka Magnet Media).

They’re giving away LOADS of prizes from these sponsors too. If you’re in NYC at the end of May, this is a free event. Don’t miss it. Register now!
