**Brian Cluff: An introduction to the Hugin Panorama Stitcher*

Hugin is a powerful program to combining multiple overlapping images 
into panoramas. It is easy to use, but needs quality input images to 
work correctly. This presentation will give an intro to using Hugin as 
well as advice on how to take high quality input images with minimal 
paralax distortion so that your panoramas will always turn out perfect.

This presentation will also cover masking out unwanted items in your 
panorama, using hugin to create HDR images, rerendering individual 
images into architectural projections.


*Phillip Waclawski: Krita basics, drawing assistants and G'Mic*

Krita is an amazing drawing/painting program. This talk will cover the 
basics of Krita, including layers, selections and more. It will also 
dive into some of the amazing drawing assistants that come with Krita, 
and really help out folks, like myself, that are artistically impaired.

Additionally, Krita comes with a set of powerful filters and tools known 
as G'mic  (Greyc's Magic for Image Computing) that is also available in 
many other programs (GIMP, Inkscape) and we will cover several of them 
during this talk.
