Special Presentations:

"The State of Editing Today" with AJA's John Ladle and Manny Rosado + Jeremy Garchow of Maday Productions.

With IBC just around the corner, AJA is surely preparing new feature sets for release. In the past, AJA has given us hands-on demos of such products as their Ki Pro and AJA Express, and they're back again this month to give us an in-depth look at their whole product lineup. Whether you need HD cross-conversion, 10-bit HD-SDI or any number of other high-end features, they've got a product for you.

Jeremy Garchow will be tapping his vast editorial experience with Maday Productions and his work with AJA's products for the presentation, with contributions from John Ladle and Manny Rosado. Perhaps we can encourage Jeremy to break down one of his amazing projects!

"Jeff Greenberg's Insights on Post Production"

Jeff Greenberg is a Principal Instructor at Future Media Concepts and specializes in Post Production - focusing on: Editing, HD/SD , DV, Blu-ray/DVD Production, Workflow, Color Correction, Troubleshooting, Compression and Compositing.

No matter what the topic, his presentations are always entertaining, educational, and incredibly valuable!
