on the brand new Production Premium CS5. Registration for these workshops
will be online this week so keep checking the SuperMeet.com web page.
Workshops during the day, and SuperMeet at night. Great way to spend a
Friday in Boston.

OPEN SCREEN THEATER
SuperMeet Attendees will be able to showcase their projects in what we are
calling the “Open Screen Theatre.” Those of you wanting to get seen will
have a 10 minute chance to do so. All you need to do is just show up and
sign up, get up and show off. The Open Screen Theater will be located in the
Digital Showcase Area and sign ups begin at 4PM.

PITCH YOUR REELS. GET WORK!
For the very first time in SuperMeet history we will dedicate an area of the
Digital Showcase to getting jobs. Post Production Companies and individuals
are looking for talent and they are hiring. You will have a chance to meet
these people and a chance to pitch your reel. Bring your reels, business
cards, resumes, iPad or lap top, and sell yourself.

Again, tickets are only $10.00 each and only $5.00 for Students with Valid
Student ID and will remain so until June 1, 2010. After that it’s $15.00
each. So buy your tickets early. There are only 500 tickets available and
once they are gone, they are gone.

If you are able to support and take advantage of this opportunity for education and networking, go to the Supermeet in Boston, represent DCFCPUG and most of all have fun and get new work!!
