What Keeps Top Post Houses’ CTOs and Technologists Up at Night?New Standards, New Post Directions, Tomorrow’s Technology & More

Wed. November 11|2:15 PM - 3:15 PM|1A07

Add to myCCW

If you're doing post production in New York in 2015 – face it, it's not as easy to figure out as even a few years ago. Your production must deal with new formats – it might be 4K, 6K "future proofing," ProRes versus RAW. The Academy of Motion Pictures & Television wants you to move to ACES – but what's that all about? Did we mention that you must be proficient in cloud computing, distribution to multiple smartphone formats, and now – oh my - Virtual Reality?
That's why you'll want to join in conversation with our esteemed group of CTOs and Technologists. These are the experts from top New York post houses who know how the latest technologies might help – or hinder – your bottom line. Our panel will help you understand best practices from camera slate through to the final render, what new workflows can save you time and money, and how to make sense of it all.

A joint SATCON & CCW session
The Internet of Things (IoT) represents the idea that more and more items in our lives, including our bodies, will be connected to a sensor, data will then be transmitted via those sensors through various pipes, to servers which will then act upon that data, ideally to better all our lives. Yet, a huge part of that process remains undetermined and ready for input and activation. Pointedly, that would include the bandwidth necessary to carry all those digital ones and zeros. What will be the right mix of satellites, and ground-based wireless and fiber distribution, that will one day make the IoT work seamlessly? Who will be the key stakeholders 5-7-10 years hence? Where will it work best? What are the major challenges and opportunities? When will it happen?
