Despite the moniker "FCPUG SuperMeet," the event is not just for FCP users. One has only to look at the sponsor list to see that. We try our best to put on a show for everyone. It just so happens most of us use FCS.

We try to show off the very best solutions and if that happens to be solutions from Avid or Adobe then so be it. We often feature new tools as well as tips and tricks. Only time constraints keep us from showing off everything we want to show off.

SuperMeets are more about coming together, networking and helping each other. Its a chance to meet many people whom you have only met online but never in person. Its a chance to collaborate with like minded people and get your problems solved. The SuperMeet show is just part of the experience.

This year we will debut the "Open Screen Theater" which will be a small informal area where filmmakers can show off clips of their work and discuss with each other how it was done. Its a first come, first serve sort of thing. Just sign up, get up and show off.

We also intend to live stream the event for those that cannot make it to Vegas.

Big trade shows are not about simply looking at the new toys. You can learn more about them staying home and reading the PRs and info on the respective web sites. They are about getting out of the house and into the faces of those smarter than you. And its just damn fun.

Tickets are on sale now for only $10.00 (plus ticket fee) and Hotels and flights are cheapest I've seen in years.

I'll be there... if you can get me out of the bars/clubs/casinos/strippers/gun ranges, I might even make it to the convention center for a few hours. :)

Jim Andrada February 25th, 2010 01:17 AM

Jose Ortiz February 26th, 2010 07:08 PM

Chris, the FCP get together, is that of any cost? It's my first time at NAB so forgive ignorance.

thanks

Thanks Michael,

Just need a little advice. Since it's my first time, do people who have attended here in the past feel that they have made some new friends and gotten new opportunities.

Chris Hurd March 2nd, 2010 04:19 PM

Hi Jawad, that's really what NAB and its associated night-time activities such as the SuperMeet are all about.

Jawad Mir March 2nd, 2010 04:51 PM

i figured but just wanted to get an idea. thanks :)

Michael Horton March 2nd, 2010 04:54 PM

Yeah. The SuperMeet itself is more about connecting with others than the show. The show will teach you something you need to know but its the people you meet that makes the night special. You never know who you will meet that can change your life. But thats up to you. Its not an easy thing meeting new people and if you are shy its best to bring along a friend who is not shy. That way you got an arm to lean on.

Have there been any rumors that Glidecam will be updating their HD series (1000, 2000, 4000)? I am wanting to buy an HD2000 but not if a new one is coming out soon. To my understanding, they don't release new series that often.

Jim Martin March 3rd, 2010 11:15 AM

I'm trying to sleep with the right person to get a free hotel room......so I might be there

Get to the SuperMeet early and hang out in the halls outside the banquet rooms. Thats where the Lingerie models will be, and yes fellows, once again the Lingerie show will be at the Rio same time as SuperMeet. Grab your iPhones.
