Hello Central Eastern Europe!   I hope you are already having an amazing time in the Microsoft virtual event REMIX event called VORTEX. If you are still not there visit the VORTEX site and login into the sessions which are being broadcasted live! I have a session at 4PM CET this Wednesday 19th (6AM PST USA) called Creating Silverlight 2 Experiences with Expression Studio. I hope you like it. We also have many other sessions related to Silverlight, WPF, Live Services, Mobile and more… here is the agenda.

**************** 

Now, for people joining my session on Microsoft Expression here are the assets that I will be using in the session. Feel free to download and play with them. I will be using Expression Design 2 and Expression Blend 2 SP1. You can get a trial of these tools from www.microsoft.com/expression. To install Blend install Blend 2 first and then after install Blend 2 SP1 in top. You will of course need to install the Silverlight 2 plugin from here.

In my session I will be showing how to create Silverlight in Expression Blend, then we will build a full Custom User Control (which is like a MovieClip in Flash but with additional capabilities like multiple timelines, extensibility, custom properties, custom states, customs property groups and more…). We will also take a look at Animation, Events and UI Control development collaboration between designers and developers.
