Written by: MyPressportal Team Save to Instapaper
Maurisoft, partner of reference for the sector of creativity in Mauritius, officially announced the Creative Masters Tour in Mauritius, scheduled for 23rd and 24th August at the “Centre Equilibre” in Trianon. At a press conference held on 14th July at the headquarters of Maurisoft in Phoenix, its Director, Mr. Nicolas Le Maire, confirmed the participation of some global multimedia tenors to the event, namely: Mohammed Jogie, Lisa Taylor and Harry Ravelomanantsoa.
"In organising the Creative Masters Tour, we aim at providing creative Mauritians of various trades with the opportunity to interact with professionals of global repute within the multimedia world", explains Nicolas Le Maire, Director of Maurisoft.
Maurisoft which has assigned itself the objective of boosting the sector of creativity and to bring value to creative jobs in Mauritius, is partnering with South-African Company Morning Star Design (MSD) to organise this Creative Masters Tour, an event that establishes an exchange forum between the Mauritius-based creative professionals and renowned international experts. These experts are coming over to share experiences in the field of multimedia creativity. "It is also a way to encourage them to move towards other possibilities of expression and to assert their creativity on more diverse media," adds Nicolas Le Maire.
"It is one thing to talk about the creativity of the Mauritians, but it is another to believe it's an investment sector that has got a future and from there create a company to service this sector. Maurisoft also has the merit of creating an event to bring together both the local talents and those who are making the trend at international level. We are therefore honoured to join this initiative of Maurisoft which is a Premiere in Mauritius", says Mohammed Jogie of MSD, the co-organiser of the Creative Masters Tour.
During this two-days Conference participants will have the opportunity to discover and familiarize themselves with software providing a wide range of solutions. Thus, video professionals will have sessions with Storyboard Pro, After Effect and Final Cut Pro. Those who are interested in 3D imaging with Autodesk will see developments made possible with Maya, 3DS Max and Artray. For iconographic resources, participants will find answers on CS5.5 Unplugged and during the Photoshop Hour session with techniques of drawing with Wacom. For press solutions, designers and printers will have sessions with InDesign and a session specially dedicated to the management of printing workflows. For the web, opportunities with Dreamweaver and HTML 5.0 will be addressed. The big news for this Conference lies in the inclusion of a session dedicated to animation, namely with solutions via Toon Boom.
"During these two days of conferences, famous creative tenors such as Madagascar-born Harry Ravelomanantsoa, Lisa Taylor who is coming from Sweden and Mohammed Jogie coming from South Africa", says Sonia Ozoux, Maurisoft marketing manager.
