Next meeting 7.30pm, 5th June
As always all levels of users are welcome to this meeting. We will specifically be looking at integrating Photoshop and Illustrator design with Flash. I have requested a guest speaker for Adobe and expect to have a video conference session with them. We will also run through a design to product demo.
Doors open from 7.15pm, I look forward to seeing you all there.
OFVM to host the Oxford Flash User Group
Oxford Film and Video Makers have kindly agreed to let us use their facilities to host the user group meetings. I have scheduled in meetings on 5th June, 3rd July and 4th September. I think it will be a good venue as it has good projection facilities and internet connection. I am planning a few video conferences with Adobe developers so it will be a great help to be based here.
