Steve or Barbara,

Can one of you please help Jeff with this?

Or if you both think that Drive Savers is not an option let's just hang this.  

I have already expressed that I think it would be good but if it's a problem then forget about it.

In any case, please let Jeff know one way or another.

Thanks,
Marcelino

P.S.  Please keep this thread in the Presentations list.  I have also changed the subject like.  We need to keep these threads consistent and on subject.

Unless a GM date is offered I'm going to apologize and thank the various levels of authority at Drive Savers.

Thanks for positive responses from Mike and Russ!  :)

In a previous email I did ask Jeff to work with Barbara and Steve to make sure that the DriveSavers presentation would be set to an appropriate level for the members.  I hope that can be done without watering it down too much.  I think it will be a good topic.

The DriveSavers presentation would not be a replacement presentation for Jeremy but a presentation for a different month.

Thanks,

Marcelino

John,

As I recall, at one of the board meetings, we decided that since it is becoming more and more of a challenge to get speakers, on occasion we might have to pay them.  It would require board approval and this is what Barbara has requested.

We do not have a specific criteria/guidelines at this point in time.

It was also pointed out that we do have the funds to be able to afford this, especially in this case which the speaker is only asking $100.

We do NOT have a speaker for next month so $100 to secure one seems reasonable.

Otherwise, forget the whole idea of paying anything and don't have a speaker for next month and perhaps we can just stop having a GM altogether!

Thanks,
Marcelino

Do we have any guideline or strategy for when we are willing to pay presenters and when we are not, and if we pay, how much?

Dear Board Members,

As of now we have no speaker for the July 24 General Meeting.   The dead line for the 

newsletter publicity is the last week in June.

I have been talking withJeremy Sutton of Paintbox TV, who came over a year ago to a large crowd demonstrating 

Corel's Painter and iPad art. He was very knowledgeable and entertaining, ending his performance with a Portrait of

our President Steve Traiger and a dance with a Marin Photo Club member.

He professionally performs all over the US and Europe for Corporationss with prof fees

He holds workshops and has a Web site called PaintboxTvcom.

His topics for the night would be:

* 30 minutes with a photo painting demo in latest version of Painter, showing clone workflow and some cool brushes etc.

* Then a 30 minute photo painting demo using Art Rage on iPad

* followed by 30 minute live portrait sketch demo using Procreate on iPad (plus final dance at end)!

* Show a video of the The Tilt Brush,a 3D VR paint program (see https://jeremysutton.com/ vr-vegas-2017)

|  | Jeremy Sutton Studios Google Tilt Brush ExperienceLas ...jeremysutton.comThis video shares a virtual reality based performance at a corporate event in Las Vegas. The tools used included the Oculus Rift and Google Tilt Brush. |

 His talks and presentations to clubs and societies the honoraria has typically been in the range $100 - $500.

I hope he will agree to come  to us perhaps for his minimal small group fee of $100.00 plus the dinner for him and his companion ,Peggy. 

He cannot commit until June 25th if his other appearances permit, so I hope this will entice him.

I suggest, considering he came before for free, and that we are up against a time problem and that we spend  as much per month on Raffle Prizes,

that we agree to offer a $100 honorarium to him for his appearance.

We have discussed in Steering before and agreed to sometimes pay an amount to speakers for their time and efforts.

Please respond with your vote on this matter  yes or no.

Sincerely,

Barbara Hansen  GGCS VP  415 332 1720
