One of our most important goals at SMPTE is to shine a light on technological innovation and how it is shaping media and entertainment. Sponsoring these educational sessions led by our esteemed colleagues is one way to fulfill that goal, Michael Zink, vice president, emerging and creative technologies at WarnerMedia and SMPTE education vice president. It will also be great to come back together again after two years apart. Theres nothing like the spark that comes from in-person discussions on the industrys most impactful topics. Plus, Im looking forward to seeing old friends.
