Photoshop World 2011
Orlando March 30 (Wed) to April 1 (Fri)
Orange County Convention Center – South Concourse, Orlando, Florida
I am planning on going to the FREE expo days on Thursday and Friday. They have great teachers on the floor and lots of vendors. A great chance to mingle with others. The expo is free for two days. Just the expo is so worth going. Don’t miss out.
I have not upgraded my Creative Suite to CS5 and therefore learning all the new stuff would be lost on me. I want to spend that money on upgrade when they go to the next level or I might wait for two level upgrades. I went the last two years.
This is a conference (convention of training) where they actually teach you and not just fluff through the material. It is incredibly amazing. If you have the time and money, this is the conference to go be a part of the whole thing. There is so much to do and see and learn in three short days although they will feel long because of the amount of information you will absorb.
Learn about photograph lighting. Learn about Photoshop. Learn about setting up objects for a marketing piece. Learn about equipment.
Amazing instructors:
- Bert Monroy who uses Illustrator like it was a third hand with detail and artistic flair
- Corey Barker who jumps into any application and figures it out and teaches it
- Joe Glyda takes ordinary object and photographs them into an extraordinary picture
- Joe McNally needs to be cloned. A super friendly and nice guy who has been part of photographing the extreme and capturing light and subject into a perfect picture
- John Paul Caponigro has captured the ice, effects of climate change, and the far reaches of the earth into unforgettable photographs
- RC Conception the technical and Photoshop genius who is down to earth and openly shares
- Scott Kelby is one of a kind and his talents include a band
- Russell Brown is like the crazy professor who will take you joyously into realms you did not know from the dark ages into the light of today
- Moose Peterson sends pictures on twitter or Facebook of his office (the wilderness)
- Many more great instructors – see link in resources

Jennifer, Thanks for commenting. The Free Expo pass will allow me to enjoy part of the conference. Comment hour moves very fast. I open up all the tabs and then spend about two hours going through them. Photography is fun.
I think Kelby’s group did a great job with the event. I thought the video they did for the keynote was fantastic and hilarious. Tying it in with the Fashion Week theme was brilliant in my opinion. I just wish there was a bit more focus on design. Photoshop is used for so much more than just photography.
