MONDAY GENERAL SESSIONS The Sports Production Session track extends over two days, designed to put production workflows, tools, and technologies front and center. Leaders from across the industry will be taking part in exclusive keynote conversations, presentations, panel discussions, and debates.

AGENDA (subject to change)

1:00-1:45 Working Lean While Meeting Multi-Platform Needs More and more sports production teams are working on not just one deliverable (the broadcast) but multiple feeds, signals, and sources to the Web and digital devices. Getting that accomplished continues to be a work in progress as new workflows are hammered out and also need to adapt on the fly. Experts take to the stage to discuss how they are approaching multi-platform content creation and how it impacts technical and personnel needs.

1:45-2:00 Case Study (Sponsored)

2:00-2:30: Figuring Out a Plan to Move to IP-Based Production

The buzz around IP can sometimes seem deafening but the reality is that the transition to IP work-flows is going to take years. How will working in a world where IP and SDI will need to co-exist going to impact facilities, truck design, and staffing? What role does 12 Gbps play? And is IP a panacea for every type of production?

2:30-3:00 Networking Break

3:00-3:45 Engineering Perspectives on the Changing Production Landscape The engineering teams at both the remote production service providers and the networks are being challenged with integrating a tremendous amount of new technologies that require new ways to plan a production, integrate them within existing workflows, and make sure operations run smoothly. How is the transition to IP progressing in the field? How are more bandwidth-intensive camera systems for high-speed and super-zoom needs being integrated into traditional replay operations? And how is digital media delivery impacting the engineering side of the production? Leaders share their experiences and expertise.

3:45-4:30 Making the Move to HDRHigh Dynamic Range has cast a spell over many in the sports production community and, in many cases, is seen as more important than adding resolution via 4K acquisition. There have been a number of HDR trials in recent months and plenty of new ways to think about how to produce and distribute HDR content. Those who have tackled HDR take to the stage to discuss what they have learned and what is next for this exciting and enticing new advance.

AGENDA (subject to change)

9:00-9:45 Sports Production Highlights From the Year That Was2016 might one day be remembered as the beginning of the UHD and VR era but it was also be remem-bered as a year of tremendous technical and production achievement. Leaders in sports production discuss some of their favorite accomplishments, how they impacted the industry at large, and what they are looking forward to in 2017.

9:45-10:30 The Technical Revolution on the Front BenchProducers and directors today have more ways to enrich their storytelling than even before. Augment-ed reality, POV cameras, super zoom, performance data, and much more. How are they making use of these tools and what is on their wish list for next-generation tools? And how do they embrace these new technologies in a cost-effective manner?

10:30-11:15 Networking Break

11:15-12:00 2017 Forecast For The Broadcast Business 2017 will continue to provide new challenges to traditional broadcast equipment manufacturers as well as those who make large capital investments on their products and services. And every day new stories are reported in the media about a broadcasting and cable industry in crisis. Devoncroft Partners takes to the stage to discuss the current state of the broadcast business as well as what lies ahead.

12:00-12:15 Case Study (Sponsored)

12:15-1:15 Networking Lunch

1:15-2:00 How Social Video Will Change The Way You Create Content Anyone can publish video to a social media platform but does your organization have a strategy to really attract a crowd? Experts discuss the different social media platforms and how to get the most out of each. How does content need to be tweaked for each platform? Which platform is most “long-form” friendly? And are things like livestreaming through a social media platform going to become a part of your production workflows?

2:00-2:15 Case Study (Sponsored)

2:15-3:00 Networking Break

3:00-3:45 Digital Leaders Perspectives: The Big Picture The digital landscape, from social media to OTT to You Tube and beyond, have transformed the way sports fans consume and engage with content. What is the relationship between digital platforms and traditional TV platforms? How can an organization make sure it operates as one in a multi-platform universe? And what is the push-pull between TV and digital platforms?

Remote Engineering Workshop dives into some of the hot topics and issues related to remote-production vehicle design, engineering, and operations.

AGENDA (subject to change) 10:00-10:45 a.m.: Adventures in IP-Based ProductionIt’s still early days in the move to IP-based remote production. And anytime the words “early days” and “broadcast technology” are in the same vicinity it also means plenty of difficult pioneering is going on. What are some of the key lessons from the past year with respect to IP-based production? What has been learned with respect to the long-term potential and near-term limitations of IP-based production?

10:45-11:00 a.m.: Case Study (Sponsored)11:00-11:45 a.m.: Hardware Virtualization and Why It Could Change EverythingOnce upon a time there was a box. That box had a dedicated function. And a broadcast facility had lots of boxes. But the industry is now poised to, at least potentially leave those days behind as the processing power of those boxes can be separated from specific functions, making them nimble and more useful. Learn how hardware virtualization could change everything from the way products are bought and sold to how they are deployed, maintained, and amortized.

For the second consecutive year, the SVG Summit will feature the Cloud Workshop, which will fo-cus on cloud-based production and media-asset-management workflows currently being deployed by sports-production organizations.
