    “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!

    I love the work Steve Holmes does, and so will you…

    Check him out in After Effects…

    Break the boundaries of 3D work in After Effects. Learn from award-winning designer Steve Holmes of Energi Design, how to take your textured Photoshop layers, add subtle lighting and a few other tricks to create the impression of a true 3D space. Steve incorporates silhouette clips from Ribbit Films (part of the Artbeats FootageHub) along with the Magic Bullet Looks plug-in from Red Giant Software to achieve this extraordinary piece.

    Cheers Steve!
