November 2, 2004 in Los Angeles   Co-Located with the American Film Market (Nov. 3-11)

If you're in film, television or video production, your next job depends upon two things: grasping the bleeding-edge in digital technology; and networking with the top-drawer directors and executives who are deploying it.

If you sell digital technology to Hollywood, you need to know what tools the most forward-looking filmmakers and TV producers are deploying.

You'll find your next job or your next sale at The Digital Studio!

The only conference that gives you the digital knowledge you need to succeed AND lets you make deals in an exclusive and intimate environment with Academy Award winners, studio and production executives, visual effects directors, cinematographers, filmmakers and TV producers, and others in Hollywood's creative community.

Look who's speaking!
