Subject: Last's night AUG meeting!

Date: Thu, 7 Sep 2000

Dear all-

Just wanted to give you a recap on last night Autocad User Group's meeting:

 

We had a fantastic presentation last night by Leonardo Casado. He

completely "wowed" us with his 3D presentation and portfolio! We even got

the inside scoop on how he puts together these masterpieces. He took us

through a step by step demonstration from basic 3D work to 3D modeling to

Special Effects!

The Special Effects was the highlight of the evening! We even got to see a

house magically transformed onto a waterfront setting with water

reflections! Fly bys and walk throughs really ties a presentation

together! The expression " he makes it look easy" takes the cake here!

 

We were also fortunate enough to have Michael Murray and Troy from

Microdesk and Geoff Langdon at our meeting last night. Talking to the pros

will get your cad juices flowing!

 

F.Y.I.

Next Meeting: Michael Murray and Troy will be hosting the October 4th

Meeting, same time same place.

 

If anyone is interested in hosting a meeting, please send us an email or

give us a call. The meeting can be any topic you want, casual or formal.

You can host it at your office or at the BSA. We'll provide the food and

postage!
