Hey! I have started researching parties and user groups (khronos is the main one I have found so far http://www.khronos.org/news/events/...os-angeles-2012) I wonder if anyone else has found anything? I am tracking this years parties in the league of SIGGRAPH parties (http://www.facebook.com/groups/leagueparty/)

Hopefully Blurr and Autodesk will have another event, the last one was pretty amazing!]]> Mon, 04 Jun 2012 22:42:15 +0000 http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?t=1054105 Posted By: Alikah187

This is my first time going to SIGGRAPH not as a student volunteer. Every year I feel I have gotten better at the conference, but I am a bit nervous going as a new grad, now looking to network with professionals instead of mostly other students going to mostly SV sessions. I was wondering if any vetrans had some advice on how to make the most of the conference? Any advice would be appreciated ]]> Mon, 04 Jun 2012 22:35:24 +0000 http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?t=1042101 Posted By: PaulHellard
