OSG users, At last night's OSG user meeting in Washington D.C., sponsored by Paul Martz and Bob Kuehne, we discussed the possibility of submitting a course again to Siggraph. We don't have much time (the deadline is January 30), but I think that we can tweak last year's submission to be ready in time. The submission process is significantly different this year, and in many ways it's more streamlined. Courses from years past are now called "classes", and last either one session (quarter day) or two sessions (half day). I think we could propose two classes, one for introductory material and one for advanced topics. This would basically break up last year's submission into two pieces.
Here are the required pieces for the general submission: Title of the Submission Summary Statement (50 words max) Description (150 words max) Web URL for publicity (optional) Primary submission area (choose one:) Complexity and Accessibility Future History Global Responsibility Impact on Society Professional Development and Education Siggraph Core Slow Art Computer Animation Festival Secondary submission area (optional) Primary category (choose one:) Animation and Visual Effects Best Practices, Case Studies, Tips and Tricks Creative Expression Crossing Boundaries Evolving Concepts Methods & Systems Research Secondary catetory (optional) Keywords (1 required, up to 3 more optional) Details on this work appearing or submitted elsewhere If presentation at the conference is different from the materials uploaded, and details Rights information and release Abstract (pdf) Representative image (tif) Supplementary Supporting Document (optional - pdf) Supplementary videos and images (optional) For the class submission: Describe your intended audience Prerequisites Level of Difficulty Length of class Instructor Bios Example of class notes, supplementary materials Has course been taught at siggraph previously? Special presentation requirements (optional) We created most of these things last year. Who's interested in presenting? What specific topics are most interesting? -Eric _______________________________________________ osg-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org
