Final Class Requirements

Better late than never! If you were fully prepared for class three, you're pretty much good to go already...

1) Bring your laptop & hard drives

2) Bring along the 50 or so images (DNG Files) on your computer or Hard Drive that you submitted for your first assignment, along with any other DNG files you'd like to catalog. A few hundred or so would be great, but even if you just bring the 50 or so you prepared for the first assignment, that'll do.

3) Install the trial version of Microsoft Expression Media on your computer. This was actually a requirement for class 3 so you should have done this already, but we ran out of time to jump into Expression Media in that class.

Links are as follows:

Expression Media 2 (MAC)

The Mac download is the combined updated version. Mac users, this is all you need to install.

NOTE Windows Users: You will need to install EM2 Service Packs 1 & 2 in addition to the software, and must be installed in order. These are critical updates. Links are as follows:

Expression Media 2 (Windows)

Expression Media 2 (Windows) Service Pack 1

Expression Media 2 (Windows) Service Pack 2

4) You are welcome to read Chapter 11 in the DAM Book, either before class or after to reiterate what we covered.

See you soon! Cheers, Josh


Cheers, Josh

Josh, question for you: Are notes available from the final class or should I use the DAM book and go from there for final quiz and assignment?

Harrison-

There are no notes to download - just the one blog post here detailing one element of the final class: http://www.joshmcculloch.com/wapdam/2010/02/basics-of-going-from-originals-to.html

Between that and the Chapter on Cataloguing and Expression Media, you'll be all set.

Cheers, Josh

Thanks Josh. With EM now a lame duck (well, dead duck is more like it), here's an interesting read at the EM2 forums you have linked:

I managed to find a D/L copy of Expression Media 2, but could find no way to buy it so I emailed Microsoft asking for a link where I could buy a key or purchase a version. I got a reply in under 24 hours which was good, but the news was not......

>Thank you for your e-mail.

We are sorry but our website doesn't provide Expression Media 1 or 2 any
longer. But you are free to purchase Expression Studio 3 or Expression
Web 3 Full versions or upgrades. We are sorry for the inconvinence this
issue might have caused but we cannot assist you with this issue.

Please feel free to contact us if you should have any further questions.
We are happy to help.

Kind Regards,
Microsoft Store Team.
