Is being creative just like flipping on a light switch, or does it take something more? Photographer/trainers Chris Orwig and Julieanne Kost think it takes a lot more, and provided a plan during their class “Cultivating the Creative Spark” at this year’s Adobe MAX conference.
You can’t teach people to be creative, but you can inspire them to find their creativity. That is what happens at Adobe MAX.
Three very different speakers, but each one inspirational, discussed creativity during the second keynote session at AdobeMAX entitled “Community Inspires Creativity.” Taking place in Los Angeles this year,AdobeMAX brought together users of Adobe programs, such as Photoshop, InDesign, Premiere Pro, and Acrobat, with the engineers, developers and other people at Adobe Software responsible for improving and supporting the software.
Attendees at AdobeMAX love Sneaks.

If creativity glowed like nuclear radiation, the Los Angeles Convention Center and the adjacent LA Live could have been seen from Mars last week, October 5-7, as artists, graphic designers, photographers, filmmakers and computer experts converged from around the world for Adobe Software’s annual conclave, AdobeMAX. The conference covered Adobe’s extensive line of software including Photoshop, InDesign, Premiere Pro, Acrobat, and many new apps.
