"Michael and I have talked about this for a long time," added co-producer Daniel Berube who also heads the Boston Final Cut Pro User Group (Bosfcpug). "There are FCP User Groups around the world and Final Cut Pro is a world wide phenomenon. Why should the USA have all the fun? Europe deserves a SuperMeet." In addition to the above agenda there will be more than a dozen vendors showing off their wares, some of whom will not be on the show floor at IBC. The SuperMeet will be the only place you will see them. There will be food and cash bars and rounding out the evening will be a raffle with prizes totaling into the tens of thousands of dollars. Doors will open at 5PM and the show will begin at 7PM. Tickets are on sale online only for Euro 10.00 each and this event is expected to sell out.
