360Flex We ran into Chris Keeler this afternoon

So Tom and I were walking into In-n-Out and guess who was coming out, Christopher Keeler! Chris is doing a session at 360|Flex San Jose on High Definition Video and Flex Hands On. We sat down with him to chat over Double Double's Animal Style with fries well done.

Tom was actually having a 5x5, so Chris and I made him sit at another table, those're just darn messy!

"So Chris, why should folks go to your session in San Jose?" Tom asked between bites.

"You can get a hands-on experience with HD shooting, lighting, and get THE BEST encoder settings." Chris replied, reaching for his chocolate shake. When I opened my mouth to ask who should be sitting in the chairs in his session, he added, "Anyone who is interested in producing and streaming HD video in Flex."

I was wondering what the goal of his session was. "What are you hoping people get out of it?"

He offered, "To teach people that its not just point and shoot. There is a lot that goes into making good HD videos."

"I do like HD" Tom said, reaching for more ketchup packets.

As Chris finished up his burger, I asked him what two sessions he was looking forward to the most (besides his, of course).

"Advanced Video Streaming (Dave Hassoun) & Data Visualizations(Tom Gonzalez)" was his reply as he stacked his stray. Standing up, he added,"Tell anyone sitting on the fence about 360|Flex San Jose this: If you're into Flex (or want to get into it), then you need to be at this conference. It's the "end all, be all" of Flex events."

Chris has been to two other 360|Flex events, so he should know.

360Flex is to all other Flex conferences as Flash is to Silverlight - a far superior experience.

Cruelty....

I haven't been to an In'And'Out in years. :(

Thankfully, we have a Five Guys Burger & Fries near me. If you're ever looking for another good burger chain - Five Guys is pretty rocking. I just don't like their cheese.

@The Saj Maybe you can FedEx me a Five Guys burger? If there's five guys working on one burger, it better be good! :)
