In television, direct-to-consumer distribution is rapidly displacing linear broadcast. In addition to sports-specific services, live sports programming is increasingly joining pre-produced Hollywood content on established premium streaming services where Atmos-enabled TV Sets, soundbars, and mobile devices deliver enhanced surround capabilities alongside UHD and HDR pictures. Meanwhile, outside of the specialized worlds of television and film, the accelerating growth of immersive experiences in music, gaming, and VR has expanded well beyond previously defined boundaries. The transition to streaming also translates to more hours of coverage. New efficiencies, like centralized production hubbing and AI-enabled cloud services, will be essential to cost-efficiently providing immersive and personalized experiences while simultaneously ramping up production. Please join the DTVAG for an examination of how some of our members are innovating to meet the challenges of a rapidly evolving television and audio media landscape.
