The Center For Digital Imaging Arts (CDIA) is kicking off a cool new series of speakers this fall. First up is Ethan Marcotte who is a senior designer at the acclaimed Airbag Industries.

The topic of Ethan’s talk will be "Comps vs. Code: Couples Therapy". High-end design and standards compliant code don’t sound like a match made in heaven but Ethan will prove it is. Ethan will discuss top-notch design and art-direction, as well as how to bullet proof their templates.

The event will be held at the CDIA’s campus in Waltham, MA at 274 Moody Street, Studio C on Tuesday, September 30th, at 6:30pm. The fee is $5 for students and $10 for the rest of us. CDIA alumni and students are free. Please RSVP by September 29th to speakerseries@cdiabu.com
