Just Got Back from Photoshop® World in Orlando, FL
Photoshop® World, put on every six months in different locations around the country, is such a GREAT experience for any amateur or professional photographer and/or graphic designer. From the caliber of class instructors to the amount of information you can learn in a 3-4 day period, it is well-worth the price of admission. Because they put on so many classes from photography to Adobe® software tutorials on Photoshop®, Lightroom®, InDesign®, AfterEffects®, and so much more, they give you a book (more like an encyclopedia, actually) of all the classes given at the convention. It’ll take a year to go through it! But it’s information that can be put into action immediately.
Plus, there is a always a huge exhibition of great vendors like Mpix and Media Lab, makers of the awesome SiteGrinder3 software. I got so much valuable information just talking to some of the vendors. As an added bonus, for a minimum charitable donation, I even got a head shot from one of the top National Association of Photoshop Professional’s (NAPP) Photographers & Instructors, Dave Cross. Boy, did I feel special! So special, in fact, that I just HAD to take a photo of him – with my iPhone. Imagine, a professional photographer getting his head shot taken with an iPhone!
Dave was a good sport, letting me take his photo right after he took mine!
Another attendee, Design by Firgs, has listed some interviews with folks who were teaching and learning at Photoshop® World on her blog. Check it out!
