magix.info - Community Blog

Dear Community visitors and members,

Since our last blog entry, a lot has happened, and now it's the right time to inform you again about news and upcoming projects.

For starters, we're pleased with the constantly growing number of members and the lively participation, since this makes the community even more exciting. We would also like to congratulate our first two Platinum status members (awarded at 2,000 points). We're especially thankful for the passionate and faithful engagement of these two members, "geschi“ (over 3,250 points) and "ThaiArne“ (over 2,250 points).

Since magix.info lives from its visitors and members, we would like to continue to include you all in the further development and improvement of the community. The current questionnaire box on the main page is intended to give you the option to vote on different issues. You will be able to express your opinion concerning other issues via this function in the future as well.

At the moment, we are working on designing the start page to be more useful and entertaining, and we are going to be expanding the entire community to include French, Spanish, and Italian languages. We are also preparing a documentary film competition that is set to take place soon here at magix.info. We'll keep you informed about all of these events, of course.

But that still isn't everything! Many areas will be revised and expanded in the coming months; for example, you can look forward to a new video player, an improved messaging system, and other optimizations. As soon as these innovations are available, we'll inform you via the blog.

Kind regards
The magix.info team

Dear members,

The winner of the workshop contest has finally been selected!

The winner is “Funatyc“ and his workshop “Mixing and mastering basics for beginners“.

Congratulations!

But that's not all:

Since the decision was very difficult, we've decided to reward the second and third place winners for their high-quality contributions, too.

Second place goes to our member “Legoander“ and his great video “How to fly – Using the bluescreen technique“.

And finally, the workshop “Creating and using box effects“ by “Robert-graunke“ also made it onto the winners' podium in third place.

We congratulate all participants for getting involved and thank you for your great entries.

What happens now?

In the next few days, the three entries mentioned above will receive an email from the magix.info editors informing them about the next steps required to collect their prizes.

The first place winner, “Funatyc“ also receives a bonus of 150 user points and is now a “Tutor“ on magix.info.

The magix.info team

Dear magix.info fans,

We have something in common – our passion for multimedia and our dedication to photography, movies, and music.

Everyone is a specialist in something. Some of us turn snapshots into elegant images, some of us write fantastic songs. Maybe others still aren't quite exactly experts and are just having fun with their hobby, but would like to develop their skills further.

We would like to offer magix.info as a platform for the passion we have in common and for the collective knowledge of our members. For this reason, we are holding a workshop contest.

From 15.09.2008 to 01.11.2008, everyone is challenged to develop a workshop for his or her own special topic or hobby.

Every workshop that is published during this time will be entered automatically into the contest. *

It doesn't matter whether you write about photos, movies, or music or whether you create a video or write it out in a PDF.

The winners can expect prizes valued at 1,000 euros and the distinguished title of "Tutor" on magix.info.

Among others, you may choose from:

- Samplitude 10

After the contest, the magix.info team will select the top ten of the published workshops.

The three winners out of these ten will be elected by the magix.info communitie and be announced in the next newsletter with a short introduction.

It's worth taking part. Have fun and good luck!
