UPDATE: Wow! We originally planned for 25 people to attend our Best Buy Digital Photography DEN Event. Due to such extreme demand and popularity, Best Buy has agreed to allow us to take FORTY participants! You’d better sign up fast. The first 25 slots are already gone!
Yep, that’s right. Our next TN DEN training event will take place on February 21st at the Towne and Country Circle Best Buy in Knoxville. The event is open to the first 25 participants to sign up. (UPDATED TO 40).
The Geek Squad will walk us through various digital cameras for use in our classrooms. Be at the Best Buy store no later than 8:30 that morning. The training by the Geek Squad will take approximately 1 hour.
But, there’s more! We will be giving away a Best Buy gift card to the attendee who takes the best digital shot of the day!
Is that all? Not by a long shot!
After our training by the Geek Squad, we will move to the local Panera Bread Co. for lunch (provided by the DEN) and an informal training session on Photo Story and iMovie. After all, if you are going to take those pictures, we might as well do something creative with them, right?
If you plan to attend, fill out the form found here. We will confirm your place at the training by return email.
