Randy Hudson, Director of Digital Media Post Production, DuArt

Blu-ray Disc is NOT dead — at least, that’s according to DuArt. Randy Hudson, their Director of Digital Media and Post Production, joins us to explain what they are doing with Blu-ray. Along the way, we want to find out if Blu-ray is just for the high-end of the industry and how DuArt and its clients are competing against digital downloads. Should be a good discussion.

Eric Quanstrom, COO, Sorenson Media

Last week, Sorenson Media upgraded Squeeze to version 8.5. This free upgrade provides significantly faster performance and supports yet more codecs. So, we invited Eric Quanstrom, COO of Sorenson Media, to explain the details. We want to find out just how much faster the update is and whether the world really needs yet more compression codecs.
