February meeting - SMPTE LMT (Language Metadata Table) and Metadata Basics

February 24, 2021, 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM
Mark your calendars! Register here.

We are excited to host on February 24, 2021 at 7PM ET Yonah Levenson of WarnerMedia presenting on the LMT (Language Metadata Table) and the basics of metadata for media production, distribution, and archiving.

Yonah is the chair of the Language Metadata Table committee, which is sponsored by MESA (the Media & Entertainment Services Alliance: www.mesaonline.org) and SMPTE. The LMT is a standardized set of 239 language codes that comply with IETF BCP 47, and has been accepted as the master source of language codes for the media and entertainment industry. It has been adopted by standards organizations including SMPTE and content creators worldwide.

Levenson’s presentation includes approaches on how to take advantage of existing, published metadata standards in designing and implementing media workflows, key to the effective implementation of the Language Metadata Table and media workflows in general.

For the latest version of the LMT, please go to: https://www.mesaonline.org/language-metadata-table.

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
