Acquire expert knowledge in MXF technology to better understand how to migrate to a file-based workflow system

All broadcasters will eventually have to migrate to an entirely file-based workflow. How to do this in the smoothest and most efficient way, while ensuring interoperability between servers, workstations and other content creation devices?

One immediate approach is through using the Material eXchange Format (MXF).

The EBU supports this technology and has identified an urgent need among broadcasters to expand their understanding in this field.

The Master Class will start on Thursday 26 April 2012 at 09:00 and will finish on Friday 27 April 2012 at 17:30.

-

Broadcast Engineers. Project managers on migration issues. R&D engineers.
