VIDEO:
A2RT from Birmingham have been looking into open-source software for
video for sometime, and will be demonstrating their favourite
techniques using Kino and Cinelerra.

DadaImc - Indymedia software:
Mike Tonks from the Cube cinema and Indymedia Bristol will be leading a
hands-on introduction to configuring and using Indymedia software for
your own projects.

3D GRAPHICS:
Blender is a powerful 3D tool, which can produce animated graphics, and
export as video clips. Given the cost of commercial equivalents, this is
a piece of highly developed software with huge potential.

GRAPHICS:
James Wallbank from Access Space will be giving an overview of GIMP
image software. GIMP is now also available for Windows, and is taking a
large share of the education market. With an interface very similar to
Adobe PhotoShop, if you know the GIMP, you can't go wrong.

AUDIO:
Matt Gray (aka Gray.m3) will be giving an intro to audio production with
open-source software. This will cover synthesis (with Pure-Data),
sequencing (with SoundTracker), outputting to MP3 using Lame. Pretty
comprehensive.
