Entertainment technology development and content deployment has historically been the purview of Hollywood and traditional broadcast media. However, rapid convergence of technology improvements in connectivity, bandwidth, and media-processing coupled with consumer interest has caused a surge in digital media distribution over the Internet.

Produced by the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers, in partnership with the Stanford Center for Image Systems Engineering, Entertainment Technology in the Internet Age will explore the technical, creative, and business requirements for delivering a compelling, high-quality, monetizable entertainment experience over the Internet, covering four aspects of the digital ecosystem.

Through a series of panel discussions and presentations, with ample opportunity for audience participation, the ETIA conference will examine topics within the areas of Internet-focused content creation, distribution, and monetization, as well as technical tools and solutions for shaping the user experience. Among the presentations planned is "Flash Forward - How HTML-5 and Canvas Will Become the Next Interactive Screen for Web Media," a panel discussion by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and media technology experts on the future of UI technology, as well as several sessions examining the standards and formats - SMPTE Interoperable Master Format (IMF), HLS, and MPEG-DASH - being used to facilitate content distribution and optimization of content quality.

Please join them Tuesday, 18 June and Wednesday, 19 June 2013, on the beautiful Stanford University Campus.
