What Keeps a CTO Up At Night?

Post New York Alliance Podcast

This was a panel presented as part of CCW/ NAB NY. The Post New York Alliance was proud to partner for the first time with NAB on this event.

What Keeps a CTO Up At Night?

If you're doing post production in New York in 2015 – face it, it's not as easy to figure out as even a few years ago. Your production must deal with new formats – it might be 4K, 6K "future proofing," ProRes versus RAW. The Academy of Motion Pictures & Television wants you to move to ACES – but what's that all about? Did we mention that you must be proficient in cloud computing, distribution to multiple smartphone formats, and now – oh my - Virtual Reality?
That's why you'll want to join in conversation with our esteemed group of CTOs and Technologists. These are the experts from top New York post houses who know how the latest technologies might help – or hinder – your bottom line. Our panel will help you understand best practices from camera slate through to the final render, what new workflows can save you time and money, and how to make sense of it all.
