WHY //
Because inquiring minds need to discuss! Because connecting and collaborating matters. Because Vancouver needs a launch pad for media innovation, and we want you to be a part of it.
THIS MONTH'S TOPIC //
Brett Gaylor will give us an overview of the innovative approaches to interactive online video from around the world. Brett will talk about his own work experimenting and developing open video tools, and discuss ways media makers and citizens might utilize open video tools and techniques. He will also lay out where he thinks the future of web video is going and the current threats and opportunities to open video.
Video is an increasingly important aspect of the web -- YouTube alone serves around 1 billion videos per day. What better time to talk with one of the world's leading video innovators?
