What are Local Groups?
Local Groups will expand your career network—whether you are interested in learning new skills, finding job opportunities or looking for a new employee.
A Local Group is a group of people who, like you, are passionate about design. Local Groups organize meetings to get inspired, have fun and learn from one another.

Meet-Up Details

Video is a large part of the web traffic and is being used effectively to engage online audiences. But the level of interactive engagement is very low for videos. Video is still a sort of a black-box and it's interaction with the audience is limited to the same old play/pause/stop, volume and time-bar controls. There is very little that the user can do to interact with videos in a more meaningful way. But is it really necessary to use video in the manner it is being used for so many years or is there a better way to do videos from an interaction perspective? What are the challenges and solutions that can make video truly interactive and engaging? This meet up is to bring ideas to the table and learn from each other about this brand new facet of interaction.

Meet-up attendees

Members can show their interest to attend a meet-up by clicking “Attend this meet-up” button. In addition, since Local Groups events are open to all, non-members can also attend these meet-ups.

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meet-up (and you’re welcome to do the same), but their non-member friends will not be shown as “attending” because this feature is only available to members.

P.S.: Note that the number of attendees is not an indication of its value! Small meet-ups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
