The AVID TIGER Party

[Our old friend, KRAIG BAILEY went to the AVID TIGER PARTY last evening in CALIFORNIA. Below are his tales from the evening.]

Went to THE AVID TIGER PARTY last night. Packed. Realized every person there was COMPETITION and tried to figure a way to kill them all (except for THE ATTRACTIVE WOMEN). Was unsuccessful. There were quite a few attractive female editors there.
[Ok, Kraig. I know I have to come to LA -- at least to visit! I'd love to meet me a nice, attractive single female editor.]

In the lobby the was A HUGE FISH TANK. Inside was A GIRL IN A BIKINI "sunning" herself. Actually she was watching a movie on A PORTABLE DVD PLAYER. Yup. You gotta love HOLLYWOOD. I tried snapping a picture on my phone but it was too awful to try to send. You'll just have to trust me on this.

I guess I'll be buying EXPRESS PRO at the end of the year for MAC as it will allegedly be equal to THE PC VERSION then. THE AVID GUYS are excited about APPLE's move to INTEL as it will make their lives MUCH EASIER. And the company seems to be committed to staying with MAC -- which is great as far as I'm concerned.

To me the coolest thing wasn't the fact they're using APPLE's CORE IMAGE TECHNOLOGY to do effects. No, it was the fact that you could use THE NEW MOUSE to scroll through your TIMELINE and if you have 20 BINS OPEN you could see them all with ONE CLICK using EXPOSE'.

Oh, yeah. Last demo got A FREE HAT. This one A FREE T-SHIRT.

Love THE SWAG.

Kraig Bailey, thanks for the post.
