The Academy Software Foundation (ASWF) will host the Open Source Forum on February 16th, 2023 at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles, CA. The annual event gathers business and technical leaders to discuss the current state of open source software across the motion picture and media industries.
During the afternoon program, leaders will share ideas, insights, and experiences to drive the future of open source software, and relay updates on the progress of the Foundation. Executives, businesses, open source program office leaders, technical leaders responsible for key projects and open source strategies, and anyone who is interested in learning more about the Academy Software Foundation, are all encouraged to attend.
A keynote will be given by Dr. Andrew Glassner, Principal Research Scientist at W t Digital/Unity entitled Storytelling in the Era of AI. Glassner has worked as a film director, computer researcher, video game writer-director, and novelist. He now works at the intersection of human artistry and software for creating visual effects, and developing tools for a new generation of storytellers and audiences.
Other sessions will explore:
