Free Flash & Photoshop KISSES Held
By Sophia Lucero (http://sofimi.i.ph)
Last April 13 and 22, 2005, the Association for Computing Machinery – UP Student Chapter (UP ACM) and the UP Association of Computer Science Majors (UP CURSOR) jointly held two Knowledge and Information Sharing Sessions (KISSes), one on Macromedia Flash and another on Adobe Photoshop.
Over 60 people attended the free KISSes, which were hosted by the Department of Computer Science at MH 209. Jason Masipiqueña and Pio Claudio, Gaming and Graphics SIG Heads of UP ACM, taught the basics of Flash on April 13 for two sessions — 9-12 AM as a members-only session, and 1-4 PM as a free for all. On April 22, Daniw de Leon of UP CURSOR gave a crash course on Photoshop from 1-5 PM. Participants also had the option to have primer CDs burned at a minimal fee. The CDs contained the programs’ trial versions and several tutorials.
Both organizations are planning to hold several more sessions within the coming months.
