The time has come once again for my annual European tour. I am offering private or classroom training to all European 3D Studio users. My formal itinerary begins in May and includes England, Belgium, France, Spain and Italy. However, I will travel to any European country if there is someone there who needs training. I'd also be interested in organising seminars and speaking at user group meetings. If you're interested, please contact me on this user ID. Any user who books two or more days of training gets a free set of three books from the 3D Studio Tips & Tricks series. See you soon Michele

We'd be honored to have you drop by the meeting and drop some pearls of wisdom and show a demo tape or two. The meetings are pretty informal so you could take as much or little time as you please. Let me know what you think. TedB !^NavFont01F0007MGHHGB8A256

Sounds great. I don't have an NTSC tape but I'll try to get my PAL tape converted for the occasion. I will have copies of new books hot off the press from Australia though. US version will be ready around the end of April. Michele

Give me a call when you get back to Auburn and we'll work out the details. Thanks TedB !^NavFont01F0007MGHHG46E167

Michele, How are you? What are your dates in the UK? Andrew
#92900From: Michele BousquetMar 23, 1994 12:23 AM
Dates are currently open. I tend to go in and out of the UK a lot because that's where most of the work is. In any case, I'll be flying into Heathrow from Boston in late April/early May (exact date not set yet). Is that a good time for you? Michele

Michele, Some background At our AGM in January, AutoCAD User Group UK, like NAAUG, became the Autodesk User Group. At the moment we don't have a 3DS SIG, and sometime soon we need to get something kick-started. When I read your message, I saw the possibility of arranging an inaugural meeting with you as the star. Unfortunately, your visit to the UK is too close to make the necessary arrangements and publicise the event. Ideally, we would need to fix a date some three months ahead of an event because of the lead-in times necessary to get meeting notices into the three publications AUGUK uses to publicise its events; CAD User, CADdesk and Autodesk's own News.dxf. Email me just before you leave for London, or phone me when you arrive (081 348 3040) and maybe we could meet sometime. Andrew

Sounds good. Did you know I am the NAAUG international 3DS rep? It's my JOB to start 3DS user groups! So I am very interested in this! As an American I always consider London to be "just a quick train-and-ferry ride" from anywhere in Europe. I think I entered and exited the UK eight times last summer. The customs officials were getting quite suspicious. The upshot of this is that anytime is fine. Would you like to schedule something in June or July? I'm going to Siggraph (July 24) so it would have to be before then. August is fully booked in the US, but late in September would be fine too. I'll be happy to stop in and see you when I'm in London. I'll call you when I arrive. With your advertising timetable you might want to fix a date now. I won't be in London for another month or so. Michele

Michele, may I suggest that you also have a phone call with the german 3DS distributor. Maybe he's interested in having you talk to his users. Contact Gabriele Mueller Computer Aided Animation GmbH at fax (+49) 7022 56758 or phone (+49) 7022 95770 They just organized a nice 3DS event on March 1st. You should have been there. <g> Dietmar

I wish I had been there. By the way I never saw the review you did. How can I get a copy of the magazine the review appeared in? (If the review was good, that is. <g>) Michele

Andrew, We're a heavy 3DS user (and dealer) in the UK, with render farm and video production setup. I'd be interested in getting involved with a 3DS SIG. Anything I can do? Regards Chris Wee Rosswood in Aylesbury, England

Chris, We may have a goer here! This next week, I will be talking to Nick Manning at Autodesk UK, plus a couple of other leads Michele has given me, in order to set up a 3DS SIG here in the UK. Can you phone me on 081 348 7741, or fax 081 348 7741 to discuss the matter further. I work from home, so you can call me anytime during the day or early evening. Andrew
