Videoguys will be a participating sponsor again the year!
Los Angeles, CA/Boston, MA - The Final Cut Pro User Group Network
announced the 8th Annual NAB FCPUG SuperMeet will be held at the Rio
Hotel (Las Vegas, NV) on Tuesday, April 21, 2009. Expected to be one of
the largest gatherings of editors, filmmakers, and digital content
creators during the NAB 2009 show, the 8th Annual NAB SuperMeet
provides an open forum for attendees to discuss the rapidly changing
landscape of postproduction and broadcast, talk one-on-one with
industry leading digital media technology developers, and network with
peers.
“The SuperMeet is and always has been the biggest party in town
during NAB week,” says Michael Horton, SuperMeet co-producer and
founder of the Los Angeles Final Cut Pro User Group. “It has become THE
social gathering place for editors and digital content creators looking
to network, inspire, learn from each other and just have a good time.”
Final Cut Pro User Groups (FCPUG) started as a grassroots movement
to connect Apple Final Cut Pro Editors at a local level. The producers
behind the SuperMeet have harnessed the energy of these local chapters
and turned FCPUG into the industry’s most influential user organized
event with an impressive number of members turning out for each
SuperMeet.
Now in its 8th year, SuperMeet events are held in conjunction with
industry trade shows around the world; MacWorld (San Francisco, CA,
USA), NAB (Las Vegas, NV, USA) and IBC (Amsterdam, The Netherlands).
The user-driven format offers engaging presentations and training by
community members and industry technologists. Equally popular are the
presentations from community member videographers and filmmakers.
“These SuperMeet events provide the postproduction and broadcast
community an opportunity to not only learn about the latest technology
trends, but to connect with eachother to discuss experiences and
opportunities within the industry in a social setting that is both
educational and fun. This is especially important in today’s tough
economic climate where staying connected and networking is more
important than ever,”comments Daniel Berube, SuperMeet co-producer and
founder of the Boston Final Cut Pro User Group.
The 8th Annual NAB SuperMeet will also host the “FCP Trade Show”.
Over 25 developers and manufacturers will showcase the latest in
digital media technology. Attendees will have the opportunity to talk
one on one with leading manufacturers about the latest innovations for
postproduction and broadcast markets.

SuperMeets are gatherings of Final Cut Pro editors, gurus and
Mac-based digital filmmakers from throughout the world who use or want
to learn to use Apple’s Final Cut Studio suite of applications, most
importantly Final Cut Pro. SuperMeets are held annually along side
large trade shows such as Macworld in San Francisco, NAB in Las Vegas,
IBC in Amsterdam and in 2009 as a stand alone event in London. The
agenda usually includes appearances by Apple, demos of new products,
digital video tips and tricks, and filmmaker show and tells. In
addition there are over two dozen vendors showing off their wares as
part of what the organizers call the FCP Trade Show.
