Trainings in Open Sorce Multimedia Instruments /TOSMI/

TOSMI is an open source CGI and multimedia training for professionals 
organized by InterSpace, Sofia and Papiotis, Thessaloniki. The 2008 
training will cover the fields of 3D CGI, post-production, animation and 
special effects, media content for the web, web TV and e-marketing. The 
training is mainly based on open source software and provides skills in 
innovative and efficient tools and distribution channels allowing for 
achieving quality production and/or education process at low expenses. 
Therefore we believe the sessions can be of advantage to professionals, 
managers and trainers in the audiovisual production and marketing.
In 2008 the training will take place in Thessaloniki (Greece) and Sofia 
(Bulgaria) and will be available in three sessions:
    - General Blender techniques, tips and tricks
    - Media content for the web, e-Marketing, streaming techniques
    - Advanced Blender techniques, external rendering engines, Python 
scrypting
Deadline for enrollment is 10th of April.
Each session has a participation fee of 1000 Euro, that covers the 
training and 6 days accommodation in Sofia, including coffee-breaks and 
lunches. Scholarships will be available.
