Brian Cassil Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Well, I think we are overdue to post what siggraph parties we are going to and when and where they will be. I've been living in a cave for the past few months so I am completely out of the loop on what will be going on that week. I don't even know how to get signed up for the Autodesk event. Of course there are the Vismasters stuff but what about earlier in the week? What will everyone be doing in the evenings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Saunders Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 That looks like a good list. Any idea what the times are? Is the Monday Autodesk/Cafe FX party the same one where they will show the max10 stuff, similar to last year's show with the punk/garbage drummers?

Brian Cassil Posted July 23, 2007 Author Share Posted July 23, 2007 So what time to the vizmasters parties start? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernest Burden III Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 the Monday Autodesk/Cafe FX party the same one where they will show the max10 stuff, similar to last year's show with the punk/garbage drummers? I got an invite to that one from Cebas, who is piggy-backing, I guess. I'm not sure I can make it, but I will be in town already by then. It's on an aircraft carrier, USS Midway! It would be worth going just for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krissy Most of the parties are pretty tough to get into unless you have a lot of connections in the industry or know someone at the company who is hosting it. It can quite litterally be like a back alley drug deal for some parties. If you go to the booths of the bigger vendors on Tuesday morning, the first day of the exhibition, you can sometimes sweet talk someone into giving you a ticket. Women will have the advantage here as many of the parties are predominantly guys. This year there appears to have been a lot more email invites in advance for parties than there has been in the past, but I know parties like Houdini are already fully sold out.
