Lion Audio Video Consultants, in conjunction with Datacolor, is pleased to offer a variety of educational sessions at the 2006 CEDIA Expo in Denver, CO. During the show (September 14-17), there will be three-hour introductory classes on the basics of video calibration. These courses are geared toward the calibration “newbie,” and will provide an opportunity to learn the features and benefits of the ColorFacts Professional software. Upon completion, the “newbie” will have all of the necessary training to effectively use the ColorFacts Professional Software. Introductory classes are free of charge.
On the Tuesday and Wednesday prior to the show (September 12 and 13), Lion AV will be presenting a two-day (22-hour) comprehensive class titled “Hands-On Calibration Training,” for technicians with knowledge beyond the basics, as well as those seeking ISF Certification. Instruction will include the essential theory behind the creation of a reference calibrated image. Hands-on training will include a variety of display technologies including CRT, plasma, LCoS, LCD, and DLP, in both front and rear projection formats. This class will also allow the attendee to obtain ISF Certification (
www.imagingscience.com), pending successful completion of the written exam. All attendees that successfully demonstrate essential calibration procedures will be awarded CCP (Certified ColorFacts Professional) Certification.
For the advanced practitioner, Lion AV offers the “Advanced Color Space and Color Space Management Class,” featuring Joe Kane (Joe Kane Productions), the most widely noted Color Scientist in the home theater industry. This four-hour class is being offered on Wednesday and Thursday evening. It will cover a series of advanced topics including the differences between SD and HD color space, adjusting a display with CMS (Color Management System) capabilities, and manipulation of the CCA and CMS menu systems in order to appropriately calibrate a display. Real-world examples will be provided as well as in-room demonstrations using a variety of displays that allow for CCA and CMS manipulation. Datacolor, as sponsor, is offering ColorFacts customers the opportunity to attend at a reduced rate.
