The NSW Institute of Technology Education (ITE) held it’s annual conference this week and one of the industry workshop options was a day at the Adobe Sydney office on Wednesday 27th November.

This event was run by myself and Adobe Education Leader Jason Carthew (IT Manager, Technology teacher at Korowal School, NSW.

Following a brief welcome and demo of the new Adobe Aero app, the educators were divided into two rotated workshops. Jason’s was focused on Animation with After Effects, Photoshop and Adobe Animate.
