You will hear from Rob Legato, an Oscar winning visual effects supervisor; Paula Scher, an iconic graphic designer and illustrator; Erik Johansson, an up and coming photographer and retouch artist; and Phil Hansen, a constraint-based artist that believes limitations drive creativity.

The Adobe MAX Conference in LA is rapidly approaching! If you are going, or would like to, please come to the meeting and we can fill you in on the details. There is a educational discounted price, and an awesome student discount price, plus, for every 2 people that register we can register another person for free. Although there would still be lodging and transportation cost for that person. Also, as if the training, experience, and fun of the conference were not enough, everyone who attends the conference gets a 1 year free subscription to the Adobe Creative Cloud!

Auburn Multimedia Users Group blogs Adobe Is Coming To Auburn! - Jan 10
AU-OIT is currently investigating the possibility of having an enterprise agreement with Adobe! To this end, representatives from Adobe will be on campus to give an overview of how Adobe works with education to help students, administration, and brand. Due to the overwhelming response from the Auburn community, they have had to split up the presentation into multiple sessions and are asking everyone to sign up for the session time you would like to attend. I'd highly recommend going if you can and we can talk all about it at our next AMMUG meeting, which is Thursday at 10:00AM in the Duncan Hall conference room. See you there!
Auburn Multimedia Users Group blogs Adobe® 2012 Mobile Consumer Survey Results - 10/18/12
Using mobile sites, apps, and emerging technologies to get ahead
The proliferation of mobile devices and tablets continues to rise. In 2011, smartphone adoption alone reached 38% in the United States and is projected to grow to 48% in 20121. Mobile has become a long-term initiative for businesses, yet marketers are still finding their way on how to define, implement, and optimize their mobile marketing strategies. Results from the Adobe 2012 Mobile Consumer Survey show that consumers are using their smartphones and tablet devices to connect with brands in a variety of ways, but there is significant room for improvement in the user experience.
Auburn Multimedia Users Group blogs How to Use InDesign's Liquid Layout - 10/18/12
There's an interesting article in InDesign Magazine about using the liquid layout in InDesign CS6. This sort of reminds me of the fluid grids in Dreamweaver CS6. I also like the way they created the navigation in this PDF file. Pretty cool.
