A Note from Scott learning lightroom to the max
If you’re reading this magazine, that means you’re into Lightroom, and that’s big because we’re just about 60 days away from the biggest Lightroom education event in the entire world. It happens at the Photoshop World 2017 Conference (sponsored by Adobe), coming April 20–22 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, where we’ll have three days of world-class training in a dedicated Lightroom track. Best of all, this is your conference—the official conference for KelbyOne members, and the entire event is produced by KelbyOne.
I’ll be teaching in the Lightroom track, and I’ll be joined by some of the most famous Lightroom instruc- tors on the planet, including Matt Kloskowski, Adobe’s own Terry White, our own Lightroom Help Desk guru Rob Sylvan, and Serge Ramelli, among others. It’s a chance for you to get totally immersed in learning Lightroom, and there are classes on just about every Lightroom topic you can imagine. Plus, you’ll have the opportunity to meet the KelbyOne instructors face to face, and not just from the Lightroom track, but everybody from Joe McNally to Jay Maisel to Jeremy Cowart and many more who will all be there (and you should be, too).
This is the only Photoshop World Conference for 2017 (there’s no Vegas conference this time around), so you don’t want to miss out. If you sign up right now, you can
save $100 using the early-bird registration discount, and since you’re a KelbyOne member, you already save $100 off what the public pays, so you’re saving $200 right off the top.
Orlando is an awesome host city for Photoshop World (the convention center is only 15 minutes or so from Walt Disney World), and you’ll learn a lot, laugh a bunch, and come back faster and better at Lightroom than you ever imagined. You’ll leapfrog your skills big time, and have a great time doing it. There will also be lots of networking events and chances to meet new people and make new connections.
I hope you can join us. Go to photoshopworld.com for all the details, class schedules, and to reserve your ticket. It’s going to be (wait for it, wait for it) epic!
One last thing—this past week I recorded a new online class on my Seven Point System for Lightroom, and I go into greater detail than I was able to on my live tour. I’ll let you know when the class is released (probably within the next three or four weeks), but I’m really excited about how it came out, and I can’t wait to share it with you.
Thanks for being a KelbyOne member and letting us share some of our favorite Lightroom techniques with you here in the mag. It’s such a great time to be a Lightroom user! :)
All my best,
