A brief seminar will showcase some of the best methods from top professionals throughout the industry including punt strategies, using video effects, and setting up a tactile operating approach that works for you. After this, we’ll break into teams for the rest of the workshop. Each team will be introduced to their workstation, and begin training and setup procedures for effective pre-visualization and design.
