Cloud Service Providers have an ever-expanding portfolio of service and application options specifically aimed at addressing the needs of Media Workflows.
The Cloud now features heavily within most media workflows, requiring those responsible for planning, designing and operating infrastructure to have an appreciation of the respective benefits and pitfalls associated with the underlying technology. This webinar will explore the fundamental issues concerning the technology upon which cloud offerings are based upon from a media perspective.

Jim Skinner nailed down the transmission path of every single Twitter-funded live broadcast from the first NFL game to the full PGA tour 2 years later. If you ever worked an ad-supported live stream for Twitter you already know Jim. But for those of you that don’t, trust that he has a storied history connecting the broadcast world to social media.
How did Jim fall into this niche? He graduated with a production degree from USC’s School of Cinema and Television but was as interested in the online space as the world of production. He put in 14 years at Microsoft, 5 years at Twitter and is now 3 years into his Facebook stint. Along the way he picked up a Master's degree from Santa Clara University's data science program (housed in the Leavey School of Business) and numerous patents related to social media.
Jim’s SMPTE work focuses on defining a reference set of user generated HDR content (with tone mapped variants) for academic and industry uses. Jim believes that the biggest challenge social media will face in the next 5 years will be the transition from the Rec 709 colorspace to HDR’s larger color volume. Without a known good set of tone mapped examples, measuring tone mapping approaches is not possible. Jim thinks it was Rousseau that first said “If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it” but nobody wants to correct him.
