Great to have a gathering of all walks of career backgrounds and meet new people. Particularly fun to see a set-up of a live show. Sitting through 3-hours+ of non-stop lectures was a little grueling because of the lots of content to absorb. However, The presenters were excellent speakers, industry experts I trusted, and the devices were fun to try out.

The class was advertised as introduction to Adobe After Effects, but actually taught as advanced, since most attendees were advanced users. Not much better help for beginners!

Good industry culture, great trainers, good insight and excellent training. Needs greater flexibility to offer training (paid and unpaid) outside of the conventional venues such as conventions and industry conferences - and instead go to where the new users are/will be, ie. universities, user groups, etc.

NAB 2019 @ Las Vegas Good sharing of knowledge. The presentation could be organized and structured better. There were at times lack of space with people still trying to fit in. Video and Audio experience was not impressive either for an event that deals with Video and Audio. The presenters need to hire professional technical writers to help script the presentation as topics were going all over the place at times. Actual participants were helping out and correcting as well. The only presenters that were worth watching and taking the time to learn from are those they hired from people already contributing at Lynda.com. Other than that the others were just freestyling the presentation. People were taking photos of the poorly lit screen. Each session needs to have an emailed PDF handout right off the bat. No exception. This would allow everyone to concentrate listening to the session than trying to take notes from unstructured presentations. Did I mention Video and Audio presentation quality was not optimal for a Video and Audio show? Until this has been addressed, I don't think I will be attending any more Las Vegas conferences unless it was free at this point. Not worth my over USD$1K investment for the conference alone not to mention additional hotel, airplane, and food expenses during the 7 days I was there.

FMC has provided me with some top-notch training. I have taken courses that have challenged me and some that have only provided reinforcement of skills I already feel comfortable with. But, in either case, I have always taken away something new.

Great conference! useful classes and speakers!

I thought that the classes were relevant and dealt with current topics. Myself and my team all walked away with new knowledge, skills and techniques that changed our workflow and made us better.

This last year at NAB 2019, there were to many training sessions that were the same as NAB 2018. The rooms are always way to cold. It would really be nice if there were handouts for all the classes rather than having each attendee take photos of the screen or try and take notes will the speaker is speaking.
