ConnecTech Asia - SMPTE Has Organized the Following Sessions

September 29, 2020

Colour and 8K and HDR! Oh, My!

Amazing image enhancements have arrived! Greater colour volume, increased dynamic range allowing for brighter and blacker image elements, and many, many, many more pixels, provide a much different, much enhanced viewing experience.

In this session you will learn about some of the science of enhanced imaging, practical applications, and where the implementation of these enhancement stands around the world.

Expanded Colour Volume | Why do we care and how do we visualise it?

Cognitive Colour Phenomena in HDR | A colourist's perspective on cognitive limiting factors while dealing with HDR, and how to use them for creative purposes to make the best images.

Ambient Effects in HDR Imaging | Explore what effect the viewing environment has on perception of images, how this effect is quantified and what can be done to compensate for it.

BroadcastAsia Conference, Thursday, 1 October 2020 11:00am - 12:15pm, SGT (Singapore Time, GMT+8)

  • Anastasia Shepherd - Freelance Colourist
  • Aurora Gordon - Senior Colourist, Arsenal FX
  • Robert Wanat - Senior Colour Scientist, Dolby Laboratories

SMPTE Standards Paving the Way to the Future

Interoperability is paramount to ensuring one vendor’s solution will work with another vendor’s solution. Interoperability of software and equipment means not being locked in, but rather having a wider range of solutions.

SMPTE’s Standards Community has evolved as the media & entertainment industry has evolved significantly over the past several years. Find out what standards are new, why they are important, and how SMPTE standards is supporting the future of media & Entertainment.

Attacking the Microservices Interop Challenge | The Open Services Alliance and SMPTE have been hard at work in recent months, jointly focused on one of the key interoperability challenges the media industry faces today: making microservices from multiple vendors work together. Pulling from a group consisting of the leading media companies and vendors in the business, projects have been prioritised, an agile approach adopted, and the first two of these have already been contributed to SMPTE and are on their way to becoming available for implementers to field test. Join us for an informative look into what’s been done to date, and what’s next in the game plan of the OSA and SMPTE to alleviate these challenges our industry faces.

SMPTE and ETC Joint Task Force on AI Standards in Media  | In this session you will learn the role that SMPTE and Entertainment Technology Center (ETC) play in the creation of standards relating to artificial intelligence and machine learning in the media and entertainment industry.  Yves Bergquest, ETC, will discuss important topics such as the Media Industry’s hierarchy of AI needs, areas of opportunities and readiness of machine learning, and efforts to create standards to promote AI/Machine Learning interoperability. 

Cloudy With a Chance of Standards | How SMPTE is responding to the changing industry landscape to get the best from Open Source and Standards.

BroadcastAsia Conference, Thursday, 1 October 2020 1:00pm - 2:25pm, SGT (Singapore Time, GMT+8)

  • Yves Bergquist - Director of the AI & Neuroscience in Media Project, Entertainment Technology Center (ETC)
  • Christopher Lennon - President & CEO, MediAnswers

The Industry Transformation Through Software-Defined Workflows

Accelerated by the events of 2020, content creation has taken giant leaps from being a primarily centralised, hardware-centric workflow, to one that utilises software applications and “The Cloud”.

Software Defined Workflows enables content creators much greater flexibility and access to resources around the globe. But what is a Software Defined Workflow and how has it been applied? Find out in this exciting and informative session.

The Evolution of Live Production | From remote production to cloud-based, software-defined workflows. In this presentation, we will take a look at live production workflows and how current, hardware-based workflows albeit improving, are inevitably evolving towards a true, cloud-based, software-defined model. We will discuss the drivers of this evolution as well as take a look at the challenges and the potential solutions that may help accelerate that evolution.

MovieLabs 2030 Vision | Explore the principles of MovieLabs’ 2030 vision, and delve into software defined workflows and ML’s work towards common ontologies and APIs.
