San Jose, CA, April 28, 2017—A special session focusing on content capture and post-production will be one of the highlights of the 2017 Creative Storage Conference (SM) (CS 2017). The conference will be May 24, 2017 in Culver City, CA. Some sponsorship and exhibit opportunities are still available.
You can register for this premier event at http://www.creativestorage.org/2017Register.htm. The registration deadline is May 22, 2017.
The session title, abstract and participants are presented below:
Impact of 4K/HDR/VR on Storage Requirements from Capture to Studio: Quality and immersive video content requires increasing digital storage and new digital storage technologies. Once captured, the vast pool of captured and created content requires sophisticated and high quality storage to support editing and other post-production tasks. Post-production requires streaming video quality and latencies that are very different from traditional enterprise storage. In addition, economic factors favor the creation of more collaborative workflows that span distance and time and create greater demand for networked and on-line storage, archiving working content, as well as more semiconductor storage to speed performance. This session examines the challenges facing content capture and post-production storage, with reports from filmmakers and storage developers. Find out what is required now and what is projected for the future.
Speakers:
* George Krieger, Sphericam, Inc.
* Alex Grossman, Symply
* Gary Watson, Nexsan
* Gary Green, Avid
Panelists:
* Bryan Mir, Blend Studios
