SHOOT announced today that it will publish the third in a series of Entertainment and Advertising Technology Sponsored Features on March 27, 2015 across all SHOOT digital and print platforms. Following up on the success of the first two installments on October 17, 2014 and January 30, 2015, the third installment is titled "4K & Beyond."
The March 20th "4K & Beyond" Sponsored Feature…
UltraHd 4K is here. In 2014, feature films were acquired with 4K cameras, and the test UHD broadcasts have begun. At NAB, manufacturers will be showing not just a multitude of 4K cameras, but infrastructure and systems for complete UHD production and post. With Japan resolutely heading towards 8K broadcast, we know that the evolution of imagery won't stop at 4K. We're already hearing that drumbeat with 6K cameras, HDR (High Dynamic Range) and wider gamut. SHOOT takes a deep dive – beyond the hype – to find out what's real and what's really happening in 4K and beyond. SHOOT will be working with freelance entertainment technology editor Debra Kaufman again for this feature and looks forward to working with another great group of companies for the March feature.
Become a Sponsor of the March 27th Feature…
Included with sponsorship is participation in the feature and a high-profile marketing package consisting of digital and print advertising and promotion that complements and brings tremendous added exposure to both the article and the sponsoring companies. SHOOT seeks sponsors who are leaders in the field, including camera manufacturers, rental houses, post facilities, providers of digital work solutions/collaboration tools – software, hardware and cloud services and consultants.
With workflow such a crucial component of successful operations for everyone in the entertainment and advertising industries, it's critical for Production, Post and Visual Effects Companies, Movie Studios, TV Networks, Ad Agencies and Brands to fully understand "4K and Beyond" and choose the right equipment, services and toolsets for their needs. Because SHOOT's audience includes executives and artisans involved in all of these segments of commercial and entertainment production and postproduction, Sponsors have the ideal opportunity to promote their companies, services and products to a great cross-section of potential clients. The Sponsored feature and marketing package created especially for it will enable sponsoring companies to share information about their services, equipment and software solutions persuasively with the production & postproduction creative community.
