Just to balance the boat, I ordered my tickets an hour ago and I asked if there were many left. The guy's own words were 'We haven't sold that many but it's an event which usually sells very well on the day'
Not sure that means 'almost full!' but it's a good event and recommend going along.

the picture of the crowd doesn't look too full either!!
personally I am bored going to these things and listening to the same old people telling about the same old work, thinking they're cool. I don't learn anything from these events and that would be my only reason for attending.

don't fucking go then - but don't shit talk it either - because I am sure there are plenty of people who WILL learn something from the speakers

Yeah you fuckin' hater.
Keep your opinions to yourself, if they don't agree with the masses don't say it. God forbid you speak your mind and tell us your feelings.
haaaaaa

I think the problem is that they often get the same stupid people to speak each year because they're "cool"
There are a ton of 'uncool' designers out there that have more to say.
Regardless, it's always an excellent way to network.

what jevad said. I went with my friend to BD4D in LA (2001?) and had a nice time. Met a couple nice people and saw some great stuff.
I've been hoping it would come back to LA or Orange County sometime.

jeez guys, if you cant appreciate the effort of what bd4d is doing... its near zero costs to get in there.
wether presentations are good or bad is a personal thing... bd4d is all about getting together and having a great time with like minded people in your industry of work, no elitist bullshit, everyone can talk to everyone.and how can "unknown" designer talk there, stick your neck out and get known if thats what you want... 3d madness at bd4d is all about those unknown designers getting a chance to show their stuff, all it takes is an email to the ryans.

Sorry guys, but a fiver is nothing... and thats just to cover for the venue. pure and simple. and aside from the presentations, if you like 'em or not... its just fun meeting and seeing everybody and get a couple of drinsk in... and yes, if you want to go, book your ticket in advance... last time a truckload of people who wanted to get their tix the day itself didn't get in because it sold out (limited capacity people! simple math!)
