| Note special start time! |
The
Atlanta SMPTE Section has had an exceptional history of providing speakers
and programs on a variety of issues and topics of interest. One of the
strengths of this Section is the depth and breadth of the members
knowledge and experience in the production and broadcast industries.
Sometimes we overlook this valuable resource in our efforts to bring in
speakers. This month s meeting is designed to allow us to share and
benefit from this knowledge. We will have a moderated discussion on
several topics of interest such as newly emerging challenges and problems,
solutions that have been implemented, future directions for the Section,
topics of interest for future meetings and anything else which may be
suggested .
As this is an unsponsored Section event, no food will be served. Also note the starting time is 7:00 PM.
