Follow on Google News | Tickets Now on Sale For 2nd Annual Amsterdam FCPUG SuperMeetFinal Cut Studio users and digital filmmakers from around the world will gather together on Sunday, 13 September 2009 for the Second Annual Amsterdam FCPUG SuperMeet, to be held at the Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky in Amsterdam, Netherlands during IBC.
By: Michael Horton “We are very lucky to have this year's Amsterdam SuperMeet at the Hotel Krasnapolsky," The Hotel Krasnapolsky is located in the heart of Amsterdam just a short tram ride away from the REI center that will host IBC2009. SuperMeets provide the postproduction and broadcast community an opportunity to not only learn about the latest technology trends, but to connect with each other to discuss experiences and opportunities within the industry in a social setting that is both educational and fun. The user-driven format offers engaging presentations and training by community members and industry technologists. Equally popular are the presentations from community member videographers and filmmakers. The Second Annual Amsterdam SuperMeet will also host an "FCP Showcase." Attendees will have an opportunity to talk one on one with leading manufacturers about the latest innovations for postproduction and broadcast markets. "The FCP Showcase is a big part of these SuperMeets. Unlike giant trade shows, SuperMeet attendees always get a chance to get up close and personal and hands on with vendors at the SuperMeet in an intimate setting," said Daniel Berube, SuperMeet co-producer and head of the Boston Final Cut Pro User Group (Bosfcpug). "This is especially important for our industry in today's tough economic climate where networking and staying connected and on top of current HD editing workflow solutions is more important than ever." The organizers of the SuperMeet are calling the agenda "supersecret" Rounding out the evening will be the always raucous "World Famous Raffle" with thousands of dollars worth of prizes to be handed out to dozens of lucky winners. Food (snacks) and drinks will be available throughout the evening.
