Web Video is Cheap and Easy to Make - - Or is it?
The Internet is nothing if not unstructured, unruly and ultimately unpredictable. Unlike traditional TV and movie distribution outlets, which are hamstrung by scarcity, high-capital costs, technology and control by relatively few corporate giants, the web can churn out successful videos produced by individuals operating on shoestring budgets, using cheap tools and innovative techniques. How is this wellspring of creativity affecting traditional media companies and what new kinds of content are emerging? Speakers: Peter Clem, Vice President, Broadband Programming and Production, Scripps Network Interactive; Eyal Hertzog, Founder and Chief Creative Officer, Metacafe; Mike Hudack, CEO, President and Co-Founder, blip.tv; Daphne Kwon, CEO, ExpoTV; (M) Daisy Whitney, Contributing Writer, TelevisionWeek

Fall 2007 New Video Summit

Is the Small Screen Still the Big Time? Web Stars Jump to TV Sets
Despite the rise of the Internet as a TV medium, the traditional TV medium is still a top destination for producers, actors, animators and other creative artists. Traditional TV networks and shows are taking notice of this new talent pool, buying TV shows, hiring talent and stealing concepts that all started on the Internet. Will this cross-pollination make the web more like traditional TV, transform traditional TV into something more akin to the web or something in-between? Speakers: (M) Peter Csathy, CEO, SightSpeed; Warren Chao, Co-Founder and COO, My Damn Channel; Lora Kratchounova, Vice President, Marketing, OurStage, Inc.; Morgan Webb, Host, Webb Alert

Here, There and Everywhere: TV Leaves the Living Room
The Internet, along with the underlying technologies that gave rise to the Internet, are taking TV content around the house and on the road, cutting the cord that used to make video viewing a stationary activity. The iPhone era is bound to intensify the rise of mobile video, while new place-shifting technologies are slicing the tether between set-top and TV sets. How does this new era of mobile video change the nature of both traditional TV and Internet-delivered video? What new concepts in mobile video are about to burst onto the scene? Speakers: (M) Hiawatha Bray, Technology Columnist, The Boston Globe; Michael Gordon, Chief Strategy Officer and Co-Founder, Limelight Networks; Tara Maitra, Vice President, General Manager of Programming, TiVo Inc.; Dennis A. Miller, General Partner, Spark Capital; Ted Malone, Vice President of Product Marketing, Sling Media
