CONCLUSION & NEXT STEPS
This report takes threads of technology that exist today or are emerging and weaves them into a tapestry of what the future may offer. Many of these technologies come to market at the pace that innovation allows, regardless of what this industry does. However, MovieLabs believes there is a considerable opportunity to progress the visions in this paper to be realized sooner, bringing the enormous promised benefits in the near term.
Achieving that will require two things:
- A clearly delineated plan with a workback schedule that identifies the projects the industry needs to deliver in the next 3, 6 and 9 years to achieve these goals.
- A coordinated approach in which the research, explorations, learnings and proposals of each group can be shared within the community to refine the approach and innovate even faster.
The future for all participants – from directors to actors, tools providers and lawyers – can be improved if the industry executes this shared Vision, but success will be best achieved if all potential beneficiaries work together appropriately to advance cross-industry goals.
