In this upcoming DCS event, we aim to explore how Still and Moving Image Creators, who may have terrific footage in their libraries, or would like to go out and hunt for stunning images in their downtime, can capitalize on these efforts. We’ll see how to present your images to Stock Footage houses, what they are looking for, and what kinds of images are most valuable. We’ll also look at minimum and best formats required for acquisition and delivery as well as examining best practices for how to manage the media and archive your images in the evermore complicated milieu of varying formats and storage mediums.

Featured Speakers will include: Tom Spota, Director of Video Acquisition at Shutterstock; Postproduction Guru Michael Cioni, CEO and Cofounder of LIGHT IRON, (which recently expanded to the East Coast with the acquisition of Off Hollywood Post); and DCS Advisory Board Member/Cinematographer/Still Photographer Mark Forman. A representative of Studio-B&H will also present, and DCS President James Mathers will moderate the event.

Thursday, August 1, 2013, 7:00 pm – 9:30 pm, The Studio-B&H, New York
