xLights/Falcon/FPP classes at the Expo 2015

[sean]

This post will describe classes that will be given at the Expo by the Xlights/Falcon/FPP folks.
I believe there are four rooms that classes are being taught in at the Expo. We have been given a 5th room just for our team.
In the "official rooms" our team are giving these classes

Thurs Jul 16, 4-5pm: Sean Meighan, Intro to xLights (T16)
Fri Jul 17,3:15-4:15pm: Chris Pinkham, Falcon Player ‐  Beginning (F43)
Sat Jul 18, 8:30 ‐ 9:30am: Sean Meighan, Xlights 4.0 ‐  Advanced (S46)

Sat Jul 18, 11am ‐ 12pm: Gil Jones, xLights New Effects (S56)

In our xLights/Falcon room we will be giving the same classes a second time.

Finally, there are other subjects that you can just come up to one of us and request a 1:1 session.
some ideas:
how to import LOR
how to make models for AC channels
how to import superstar
how to import LSP
how to have dual projectors synced using dual FPP's
how to do projection mapping using power director 12/13
Bring a song, we will take you through the entire process (Setup, models, song file, effects, export to fseq, run om fpp
.etc

So if you pay $70 for a single day or you pay for the three day pass, come and visit us in our xlights/Falcon Room!

Ok, I'll post the question here that was posted on FB Xlights/Nutcracker Support Group page...Is there a typo in the Advanced XL4 listing?

In the "official rooms" section...

In the  "xLights/Falcon room" section...

Same question on FPP Beginner:

How is it a repeat or giving a class a second time if it's in the same time slot (just different locations)?  Or is it maybe overflow and you will be broadcasting in one location while teaching live in another room?  Sorry for my obtuseness but I'm just not getting it....(and trying to determine what I want to take when next week).


Thanks for any clarification Sean.

Yes. I will teach the beginning  class on Thursday at 11am, I am only teaching in the official rooms on Saturday. , no planned classes in our xlights/Fpp room by me. I will be available that day for 1:1 classes.
