Your Instructor: Bob Anderson

Experience:

Back in August of 1996, Bob Anderson was teaching hands-on LightWave 3D 4.0 workshops on the Amiga platform in the Washburn University /NewTek Technology Center in Topeka, Kansas. At that time, Washburn had the only hands-on training program in the world for LightWave 3D and the Video Toaster/Flyer. In 1998, NewTek Authorized Training Centers have sprung up in several states and Canada but Washburn University remains the leader in training more LightWave 3D users than any other NewTek Authorized Training Center. Bob teaches all of our workshops. In addition, Bob is world's only teacher of hands-on Video Toaster/Flyer workshops in the world.

Credentials:

Bob worked for NewTek for over six years and has trained thousands on the use of LightWave 3D, the Video Toaster, and the Flyer. He has taught demonstration classes at events such as SIGGRAPH, NAB, WEVA, INFOCom, Toaster Expo, and through the American Film Institute, the International Film and Television Workshops, the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers, and the Maine Photographic Workshops.
