Of course, you've got the yearly CEO reference to Jason's awesome energy (AKA "that dude's cuhhhraaaaaazy!"). 

I think this year it was Scott Belsky, who said, "I'll have whatever he's having."

I think it's just part of the format now. LOL.

Let's start hyping... is that a california thing?

Not for nothin, but this is PPro forum and not the video lounge where this sort of " hype' belongs... as there is no question asking experts to solve a problem re: the latest difficulties in terms of the use of the program ( in conjunction with the platform and source material )

Ann should have moved this to the lounge where it belongs.

I have to admit is is well done ( hyped up ) , similar to a trip to Vegas, or a Cruise ship vacation, or the last NFL Sunday games I watched ( with the NFL in NYC with famous movie stars and SuperBowl winners...) but in simple terms, this type of hype does not belong here.

The whole point of a new forum that would help people interact with each other in terms of solving problems ( and being 'inspired' is NOT based on HYPE or other similiar activities.. here are some examples:

a) Woodstock

b) Trip to Vegas where what you do stays in Vegas

c) NFL or MLB games

d) New Years Eve in Times Square

e) Thanksgiving day parade

f) 4th of July firework displays all over the world and subsequent party time.

I am not surprised that CA. ( Los Angeles ? ) hosted the fantastic fun of Adobe MAX, but I would caution people truly into the big picture ( human being in any culture using tools to tell stories that benefit other humans ) refrain from this sort of circus promotion.

Dear Salvo,

Thanks for your concern and comments. This was my idea. I'll run it by my manager to see if moving the post might be apropos. Unfortunately, I've already linked it to other posts and social media.

Kevin, no big deal really.. as I know your heart is in the right place and you are doing really cool stuff to do the exact same things I am trying to promote ( creativity and the indiduals freedom and tools available to make that happen ).

I love your enthusiasm and goal.   I am ( unfortunately ) a retired film worker who has been through a gazillion 'promo' things over the past 50 years ... and I think hype is NOT part of the equation for young people especially to focus on.  They have to be themselves and be smart and learn and be loving of their neighbors and other things on the planet... or it's just a total waste of time ... I think you know what I mean.

🙂
