| Darn- Totally missed it. I've been thinking about the AE history lately. I was at a pottery workshop, and the teacher kept telling us that if anyone asked "how'd you do that!" To say you don't remember. This got me thinking about how in the beginnings of AE, that anal, secretiveness was the polar opposite and you could go online any time day or night, and a Trish Meyer would always help out. Or a TSassoon, or a Brian Maffitt. And "secrets" were taboo. And because of that, AE took off, attracted geniuses from all over, and and made history of all of the old guard dinosaurs and their secrets and high-end equipment. That was a dazzling era. Of course, nothing this great lasts. I've been at this long enough to be able to tell the ethics of a worker by just looking at his/her profect. One of the last projects I worked in was unbelievably booby trapped. It was for a fast turnaround network news show, and the dude did certain things wrong then sneakily made layers invisible. All designed to get the producers on t he phone to get him back. I pointed out all of his shenanigans to the creative director. But back to the point. Way back in the early beginnings, what a classy group. > On Jan 30, 2013, at 11:46 PM, David Simons <ae@cosa.com> wrote: > >> In case this event tomorrow hasn't been posted on this list yet: >> >> ASK A VIDEO PRO: The History of Adobe After Effects >> >> Thursday, January 31st, 2013 at 10:00am PST >> >> REGISTER NOW: http://adobe.ly/p6ZMbd >> >> About 12 hours from now, Dan Wilk & I will present an interactive history of >> AE, including demos of the old versions.
