Hi Phil... Welcome aboard! Look forward to meeting you tomorrow. > I work for a software company called The Foundry - we're primarily involved in the film and design businesses, producing a range of software for digital media creation. Our showreel is here: > http://www.thefoundry.co.uk/about-us/showreels/. We make heavy use of python, from our build infrastructure through to allowing customers to, er, customise the software to fit their pipeline. Having started from zero python knowledge a few years ago (more of a C++ guy back then), I've ended up using Python in all sorts of situations, and mostly love it. The bits I don't love are probably topic for the pub! Now that sounds like a great topic for discussion! > > I'm currently based in London (and the US), but we're opening a Manchester office in the very near future. It's great to see Manchester gaining prominence as a tech location. Would be interested to learn more about how and why Manchester was chosen and how Manchester might become an even better "go to" location. > Wherever we have offices, we try to become part of the engineering community - be it events like beergraph(think a London Siggraph for VFX, held in a pub), or VFX company football leagues. So I wanted to come along and say hi, maybe embarrass myself by doing a bit of coding and meet some of you tomorrow night, but I didn't just want to turn up out of the blue - hence this message. > > Apologies for the late notice, there's been some strangeness in joining the google group (Thanks Safe!) > > Look forward to meeting some of you tomorrow evening. > > Phil > > -- > -- > To post: [email protected] > To unsubscribe: [email protected] > Feeds: http://groups.google.com/group/python-north-west/feeds > More options: http://groups.google.com/group/python-north-west > > --- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Python North-West" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to [email protected]. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out. -- -- To post: [email protected] To unsubscribe: [email protected] Feeds: http://groups.google.com/group/python-north-west/feeds More options: http://groups.google.com/group/python-north-west --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Python North-West" group.
