From the Top: SMPTE Media Technology Summit: Embracing Innovation and Preparing for the Future of Media Technology

Hello members, colleagues, and peers, welcome to the fall edition of the Motion Imaging Journal. I hope that your summer was both restful and restorative. At SMPTE, we have been extremely busy preparing for our signature event. This year's media technology summit is gearing up to be the best thus far. The session lineup covers the gamut of the most important topics in our industry today. From the essentials of IP architecture to innovations in visual content technology, our presenters are delivering content that is critical to the future of our industry. The committee is comprised of a comprehensive and educational summit. This is one of the last remaining peer-reviewed technical conferences in the media entertainment industry. Because of that fact, we can guarantee that you will leave this event more knowledgeable about the subjects presented. What excites me most about this event each year is that this is the moment when the words and the diagrams of the journal leap from the pages and into the zeitgeist of our common vernacular. I want to thank all of the individuals who were involved in supporting the summit in any capacity. Your service to the industry and this Society is greatly appreciated.
