The Las Vegas Strip at Night

Even though, I didn't have a chance to attend all the sessions I wanted to, yesterday....I did go to the following sessions:

1. Meta Data - Organizing in Final Cut ProX
2. DSLR Video Workflow in FCPX
3. Advanced Magnetic Timeline (FCPX)
4. Understanding How Green Screens Work

I'm learning a ton of information and at times it's a little too much...my brain feels like it might explode. Most of the speakers talk fast and and some of the content goes over my head. Overall, I think I will come away, with some useful tips, that will ultimately save me time when I'm editing AND shooting video.

Something Different
I normally, stay at the Las Vegas Hilton when I'm in town, but this time decided to stay at the Monte Carlo, located right on the strip. It's a good (and by good I mean LONG) walk from the monorail. This morning the NABShow provided a complimentary shuttle bus from my hotel to the convention. I took advantage of that, so I wouldn't have to walk to the monorail, which is probably a good mile from hotel.

This is a statue located outside of the Monte Carlo.

Another angle of my room. I'm on the 25th floor and my room overlooks the pools, yes there are several pools.

Like I said in the previous post, I had dinner with Susan, Sarah, and Cade -- the Abilene Christian bunch. Here was one of our appetizers from the Hash House A Go Go. Fried green tomatoes.

Cade is a photographer, so he was trying to create the perfect backdrop for my picture. Ha, OKAY - Cade.

I think this particular entree was featured on Man vs. Food. Don't ask me what it is --- All I know is there's some fried chicken under there.

And this is why, I ate a salad for breakfast and lunch. Las Vegas NABShow

After dinner, we walked the LV Strip.
