Hi, Yup, huge appreciation to everyone involved. Great to see many old (and new) school faces from the list.
Spoilt for choices with the demos, keeping fingers crossed for a few on Vimeo to re-digest. Thanks again and hope to be there for some of the pub gatherings, Adam. ________________________________ From: "a...@andynicholas.com" <a...@andynicholas.com> To: Lp3dsoft <lp3ds...@gmail.com>; softimage@listproc.autodesk.com Sent: Wednesday, 30 May 2012, 19:59 Subject: Re: SiC London last night Thanks Lawrence! Apologies, I was meaning to post an update to the list about this today. For those of you who missed it. Yes, last night was an amazing success; we had just over 150 people turn up and cram themselves into the bar. At one point they were literally queuing down the street. Overall it was a great evening, and everyone really enjoyed themselves. We were a slight victim of our own success in that because we had so many people, it was difficult to hear the presentations that were going on, but I think most people managed to get something out of it. It's something we'll look at fixing as a priority for the next event. Whether that means a change of format or venue, we're not sure yet. Next event? Yes! At the moment we're thinking that the next big one will be in November, but I'm sure various impromptu meet ups down the pub will be called for, particularly now the summer over here seems to have arrived. I don't believe I stressed this enough last night, but special recognition needs to go to Ellen Payne and Adrian Wyer who did an immense amount of work sorting everything out, dealing with getting sponsors, managing machines, talking to the venue, etc. And of course thanks to the presenters too who dealt with the difficult presentation conditions in such an admirably professional way! I need to also mention that we wouldn't have been able to do it without various forms of help coming from Autodesk, Escape Studios, Hewlett-Packard, Eizo, and XTFX. So a sincere thanks to all of them too. I'll be uploading some pictures from the event later tonight. I'll be sure to post a link to the list. Cheers, Andy P.S. If anyone who attended has any thoughts, ideas, or feedback on last night, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
