DI studios used to deliver formats for theatrical releases and satellite distribution then suddenly the scenario got changed when the whole world landed right in the heart of OTTs. The adaptation of DI Studios to new workflows and the task of delivering many formats like SDR, HDR and Dolby Vision became new normal. DI Studios now have more responsibility and a wider scope as we need to deliver projects in different formats for different platforms that too with different specs for different OTTs. #promoworks #chennai #movies #series

The Media & Entertainment industry relies on next-generation technologies to tell the stories of our time with high-impact visual experiences. Much of Hollywood magic happens in post-production, where #VFX and color correction artists help to bring those stories to life. Our new solution brief spotlights how a major Hollywood studio is using WEKA to support color correction in its labor-intensive post-production process, which requires data to be delivered at high velocity and with surgical precision. Read on to see how WEKA facilitates dynamic data workflows on-premises and in the cloud to help them achieve cinematic magic. https://hubs.la/Q02hT0060 #winwithWEKA #mediaandentertainment #VFX #video #data #dataplatform #postproduction #creative

Fact of the day: Did you know that virtual studio technology was originally tried in 1999 by CBS, though abandoned due to its high costs and complexity at the time? Despite this, virtual production is now back on the rise again as shown by leading companies like Disguise, NEP Virtual Studios and Ross Video - whether this is used for concerts or news broadcast. For example, modern news broadcasters like the BBC and NBCUniversal are adopting it for due to its strategic advantages, which enables more creative and efficient video production with fewer resources. One of the best things about virtual studios is their flexibility, dynamic storytelling capabilities and faster transitions. We've seen how this can be adapted innovatively through the Sphere. How else do you think virtual production can be used in the future? #neuco #virtualproduction (Photo credits to Disguise)

Our research brought one of the most powerful attention studies on moviegoers to date. Facial expression maps, over 500 data points, and a completely natural environment meant Screenvision could determine precisely how much attention was spent on-screen during the preshow. Among 18–34-year-olds, 26 seconds of a 30 second ad was viewed in theaters where just 9 seconds of attention would be given to CTV. It's simple, the most elusive demo in media often only puts their phones down at the movies, including during the preshow. To #AlwaysBuyCinema is to maximize attention on the spots you need people to see.

Wednesday August 07 2024. Image Enhancement                                            https://lnkd.in/grk5tt-t All other three-dimensional television systems develop a sense of added depth perception by creating a slightly different view too each eye.           My system to achieve this does not. No viewing glasses. No viewing sweet spot. No special 3D transmission required. Increased clarity. Reduced eyestrain for the viewer’s as they do experience from viewing 2D. Displaying a full depth of field view. No Blu-ray system employed in creating this 3D sensational effect. Live streaming 3D TV illusion from 2D signals if originally filmed from 3D video images. All the while employing only the standard television transmissions entirely created within the TV monitor. Nothing extra to be transmitted. Therefore no transmission changes / charges. Also no antenna alterations required. Robin @               dddtv777@hotmail.com #displaysolutions

🚨New FAST Tracker Insight: US Studios Elevate FAST Movie Channels Movie channels have become a dominant force in the #FAST landscape, showing rapid growth and strong viewership. But not all FAST movie channels are created equal. While some focus in on niche content, others are relying on more mainstream content. In this Insight, Senior Analyst Jed Ayloff explores the key differences between movie channels on FAST Platforms, highlighting the differing approaches by the major US Studios, including #PlutoTV, #Freevee, #Lionsgate and #Warnerbros.

My guest column in Variety: "Major studios have too high a market share, giving them too much power over exhibition – 73% in 2023, though down from the peak. That lower share is due somewhat to the lower number of wide releases from the majors, forcing exhibitors to look to other sources – something they should have been doing in their own interests years ago, before they became utterly dependent on Hollywood to drive their own success. "The results in the domestic market are exorbitant film terms, limited flexibility on screen programming – distributors demand every showtime on booked screens whether or not another film might play better at certain times throughout the week, no flexibility on pricing due to regional per caps that set a de facto floor on what exhibitors can charge, and excessive minimum runs that exhaust potential audiences in smaller markets and obliterate profits by week three. With their market share and reduced supply, studios no longer truly compete with one another on any given weekend or overall, leading to homogenization of booking terms, pricing, marketing expectations and more." https://lnkd.in/gGnHfjzZ

Theatrical needs more movies and more competition. Why? Moviegoing begets moviegoing. When we have more movies in theaters we have higher attendance (shocking!). When we have more movies in theaters we continue the moviegoing habit. But "more movies" has to mean more movies that people want to see in ways they want to see them. This leads me to competition. Movies are not truly competing with one another for audiences on any given weekend or weekday. First, we don't have enough wide releases to really force any kind of competition. Second, our industry is so homogenized in the way distribution deals are set and the way success is defined, that individual films are not truly able to experiment. We have seen attendance shoot up for indie films and family films when there are price incentives like #NationalCinemaDay or MoviePass or exhibitor programs in place. So why is there no widespread adoption of variable pricing? Why does a movie cost the same on week 10 as it did on week one despite that title likely being offered by the studio at home at a deeply discounted price? Why is attendance not as relevant as box office especially for films that do not benefit from PLF pricing? This industry has more data than ever before and more ways to connect directly to audiences, but we are selling them mixed messages. Pay attention to the ads on your streaming channels. How often are you seeing ads for theatrical titles to watch in theaters vs theatrical titles now available in the home? If you were a filmmaker who made your movie with theatrical in mind, what would be your metrics for success? Are those currently in line with our industry's practices? We can do better. For our art and for our audiences. For our culture and our consumers. My team is working on one solution but I know that there are so many other amazing ideas out there that just need traction. Let's collaborate and shift our focus back to the part of our entertainment ecosystem that truly makes money and impact for creators. See you at the movies!
