Greeting fellow DCFCPUG members and A-List Screenwriting guests:

The weekend two day workshop, despite the rain and road closures from the Marine Corp Marathon, was well attended and we even had the treat of two professional actors stopping in to read lines for greater emphasis on character.

Here is a picture of the class and the instructor reviewing a major film:

After detailed review and script analysis, the screenwriters consider the alternatives presented by the master script consultant:

Then the fun begins, the reading of the draft script to bring the scene alive for the class…

If you are reading this and have a interest in joining us for the next class, drop me a line at rodney@dcfcpug.org

We could not be there the second day of the workshop because we got caught in the traffic snarls created by the Marine Corp Marathon.  So after 3+ hours of sitting idle in freeway traffic (that looked more like a freeway parking lot), we cut our losses and drove back home so we could at least pull the raffle winners and post the winning names below and the winners need to email me (rodney@dcfcpug.org) with your mailing address so I can send your prize via mail!:

Sonya Dunn – Montage – Professional Screenwriting For MacOSX -(1 copy)
“Create, Write, and Submit Scripts for Film, TV, and Theater”  valued at $100 retail

Sonya Dunn – Desktop Poet – “Fridge Poetry for your Mac” valued at $20 retail -(1 copy)

Listen up DCFCPUG… this is why we exist and why I do the things I do for DCFCPUG. One day you will find us at the “top of the hill” with LAFCPUG, BOSFCPUG, SFCutters. I’m currently in discussion with Dan on the remake of FCPUGnetwork!

The latest iteration of the Final Cut Pro User Group SuperMeet is coming up, this time in Amsterdam. Event organizers Michael Horton and Dan Berube can’t help but display their enthusiasm for both the event and for their mission of bringing the power of digital storytelling to the world. They discuss some of the new features of this SuperMeet, such as turning part of the event over to the audience, the newest edition of their SuperMag and the expansion of the Final Cut Pro user group community. Their plans for the future, why it is so important to them, and why they refuse to make the SuperMeets “dog and pony shows” are all part of a look at one of the fastest-growing conference series going.
