    “ASK LARRY ANYTHING” AGENDA

    This four-hour session is a free-wheeling discussion on all things Final Cut Studio. Have questions on Final Cur Pro 6? Bring ‘em. Soundtrack Pro? DVD Studio Pro? Final Cut Pro X?  Bring ‘em all.

    This is a four-hour event where you can ask Larry anything and watch as he works through the answers.  (In fact, if you don’t bring questions, we’ll all just spend four hours staring at each other…)

    Think of this as a personal consulting session – bring your problems and see if we can solve them together. Best of all, we are offering this session for ONLY $5!

    Anyone with questions on any version of Final Cut Studio software, or the new Final Cut Pro X. There are only 100 seats for this event — this will fill VERY quickly!

    Capital Polo Club - Green Polo Match 2011

    Capital Polo Club - Green Polo Match 2011

    Imagine a ball hit so hard … that it comes at you at a speed of 110 miles per hour, so fast, you can hardly see it. Your job is to stay at a gallop, get your horse in line with the ball, and either pass it ahead to a teammate, or carry the ball down the field for an attempt at goal.

    The 2,600 year-old game of polo is one of the fastest, roughest, and most dangerous sports played today.

    Among team sports, polo is unique in two ways:

    Amateurs and professionals regularly play together and against each other;
    No matter how great his physical and mental skills, the player’s performance is determined to a great degree by that of his athletic partners, his ponies.

    Members of the DCFCPUG participated in the ecco friendly event fit for kings, ambassadors, etc benefiting local green charities! DC dignitaries were in attendance!

  • Canon Hollywood Event – 3 November

      0 comments

    Oh, what’s this, Canon? You want your turn in the spotlight as well? Well, we suppose a hint of an announcement is better than a non-announcement, so bring it on! The imaging company just sent us word of a presumably star-studded SoCal event on November 3rd, giving its cameras a chance to walk the red carpet in a rather surprising Hollywood role reversal. We’re not sure exactly what Canon plans to unveil that night — a new mirrorless camera, or perhaps some fancy pants camcorder, destined for Hollywood’s elite? But assuming the company isn’t crying wolf, we’ll be there with a live report from the red carpet.
