We’ll learn about super easy 3D TEXT creation
Greg Parrish presents an Introduction to ‘Blender’, a 3D creation tool. Greg will show Blender's free, open source, 3D modeling program. He'll go over what Blender can do, where to get it, and what is required to run the software. This tutorial will cover basic operation and controls, and end with something you can use immediately... your own flying 3D text!  Greg is an experienced videographer, director, location sound recording professional, DP,  and visual effects and 3D graphics artist.

And we’ll discover Color Correction tricks from Rusty Rogers.
“Lose the Fear of Color Matching 8 bit Footage with 10 Bit Tools!”  Rusty Rogers will discuss color matching for multi-cam and mixing miss-matched shots for a better project continuity. Rusty has been an independent videographer for over 17 years.  Whether working as a team player for other video professionals or as the primary contractor, Rusty's focus is quality deliverables for the client.

DIRECTIONS to STUDIO 50
Studio 50   3665 Bleckley St, Mather, CA 95655  916-362-7200

The easiest way in is to exit Hwy 50 at Mather Field Road South. Stay in the right or center lane.  As soon as you pass Peter McCuen St, start moving over to the left lane.  The next curve takes you to ARMSTRONG where you turn LEFT. You stay on that for just about 2 blocks ‘til you reach BLECKLEY.  “Studio 50” is the last building on your right with a large parking lot before the large grass fields....
