Adobe recently released Production Premium CS5.5. With this new release, there are some amazing new features designed specifically for motion graphic designers, vfx artists, and editors.
This summer in the motion+connect Summer Series, you’ll have the opportunity to get ahead of the curve by learning first hand how these new features work and how to integrate them in your next project.
Join us for the third in our summer series – After Effects: Stereoscopic 3D with Chris Meyer from Crish Design.
Stereoscopic 3D has come of age with the success of films like “Avatar” and “Alice in Wonderland,” and the entertainment industry is abuzz with interest in finding fast, efficient workflows that deliver quality results on reliable schedules. In this session you will learn how to use improved Stereoscopic 3D features in Adobe After Effects for compositing and animating stereo 3D content.
See you there!
about the speaker
Trish and Chris Meyer are principals in Crish Design (formerly known as CyberMotion), an award-winning motion graphic design studio. The Meyers are authors of the well-known reference book Creating Motion Graphics with After Effects, considered the bible in its field, as well as the best-selling introductory After Effects/motion graphics book, After Effects Apprentice. Crish Design has done work for NBC, ABC, HBO, Fox, TLC, New Line, and Paramount, plus corporations ranging from Apple to Xerox.
After two decades in Los Angeles, in the summer of 2008 Chris and Trish relocated to the East Mountains area outside of Albuquerque, New Mexico (read why on their PVC blog entry). They’ve since renamed their business Crish Design as an homage to the numerous friends and colleagues who inevitably mashup their first names together into “Crish.” Indeed, they often seem to be two halves of the same brain.
Chris specializes in sound design and 3D work as well as dealing with multi-format technical issues. Chris and Trish are regular speakers at our annual motion event and will be speaking at The Adobe Post Show in October.
