Production Technology

The media industry has seen tremendous technological advances and achievements in film making over the last 10 years. We foresee the next 10 years as a period of even greater industry-changing innovation that will help storytellers realize new creative visions, reduce costs for the industry, and increase output for viewers. In collaboration with industry partners, we are examining the potential offered by cloud tech, improved security approaches and innovations that facilitate flexible workflows.

MovieLabs and its member studios have published a white paper that lays out a bold vision for the future of media creation technology some 10 years into the future. We describe technological advances which will enable seismic changes in media workflows, and we propose ten foundational principles as keys to that future. Those principles provide a roadmap for industry collaboration across three key workstreams: New Cloud Foundation, Security & Access, and Software-Defined Workflows. We invite stakeholders across the industry to read the white paper and work with us to deliver on the future of media creation and continue to empower some of the world's best storytellers and the entire creative community.
