Hi everyone,
We'll be starting 2010 with a presentation that I am sure will be of great interest to many of us. Dave Stillman will be our guest. Dave makes TypeStyler, which is a program that can be used to make many types of text effects. I'm sure many of you know that TypeStyler has been dormant for many years, and has now come out with a new version. The current version is much more powerful than the old "text twisting" program. It now includes a 3-D modeler so that you can (for example) design packaging and view it from all sides, a page layout feature to help make ads, and much more. You can work with video, too, so that you can embed a video onto text and export to QuickTime. There is even more to the new TypeStyler than this list shows. This is very clearly a much more powerful program than the old version. Dave said that he's aiming it at graphics professionals who need a quick solution, as well as the home market for people who might want to make something to export to (for example) Apple's Pages. But it also has PSD output, including layers, so it's appropriate for all kinds of top end page layout programs, too.
The meeting logistics are as follows:
Wednesday, January 6, 2010 7:00 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. The Apple Store 679 N. Michigan 2nd Floor Theater Chicago, IL 60611
I look forward to seeing many of you at the Apple Store on January 6th!
Best wishes,
Russ Conte Chicago Mac Meetup Coordinator
