SMPTE Hollywood hosts regular event meetings that feature industry relevant information for our members. 

 SMPTE Hollywood invites you to attend a panel discussion on:

Creating Immersive Entertainment

How Combining the Art & Science of Visual Storytelling Yields Exciting New Experiences

In this collegial show ‘n tell event masters of immersive media will share their work and discuss how they integrate legacy tools and processes with emerging technologies to great effect.

Presenters will demonstrate that immersive media is not a separate discipline from linear legacy entertainment, but its logical extension. They also will examine areas of overlap in the disciplines, such as story structure, casting and VFX, as well as differences in budgets, tools, workflows and distribution methods.

Regardless of the end product’s format, the creative process remains an absorbing adventure for producers, and a delight for consumers.
