Five must-attend sessions
by: Apr 17, 2006 Print

Trying to plan your NAB2006 itinerary from the massive menu of panels, sessions and mini-conferences - not to mention all that occurs on the show floor? Here are five 'can't miss' NAB events that will keep you up-to-date on the digital revolution.

Digital Cinema Summit - John Fithian keynote, April 22 @ 9 a.m.

On day one of the D-cinema summit, Fithian, president of the National Association of Theater Owners, will address what the advent of digital cinema will mean to the movie business. Day two will feature a keynote from Titanic director James Cameron, addressing the production end.

Final Steps in the DTV Transition: The Death of Analog, April 23 @ 1 p.m.

This series of short presentations from an array of experts will demonstrate how the continuous rollout of digital television is rendering analog technologies redundant. The sessions within the session include Completing the DTV Transition, After Analog TV: What Will the Antenna/Transmission Line/Filter System Look Like, and more.

Super Session: Internet TV, April 24 @ 1 p.m.

Jeremy Allaire, president of Brightcove - an Internet TV service out of Massachusetts that connects content owners with their desired web audience - will discuss the issues of broadband content distribution and the lasting effect the web will have on the traditional broadcasting models.

MoTV: The Race to Broadcast TV to Mobile Phones, April 25 @ 12 p.m.

As more television shows - and original content sprung from TV - become available for mobile phones, The Race is the jewel of NAB's Mobile Video & TV Forum, promising to offer broadcasters what they need to know about this exploding business. A breakout session about wireless content creation, called Killer Content, will follow later in the day.

Super Session: New Technologies for Digital Media Distribution, April 26 @ 10 a.m.

The keynote from Frank Dangeard, CEO of Thomson, and subsequent panel will offer insight on how tech companies can help content creators and distributors move into new media, forecast consumer interest and navigate through copyright protection issues. The panel includes reps from Fox, Disney and Thomson.
