Third international
Photo Metadata Conference
"Metadata in a Multimedia World"
4 June 2009, 9.30 - 17.00 hrs
Dresden, Germany (Europe)
In 2009 the Photo Metadata Conference will focus on the use of metadata across the boundaries of the traditional photo business, extending primarily into the video content business. Driven by the requirements of web publishers the exchange of visual media using photos, graphics and video the area of "visual content" is merging into a single business. What does this mean for those who have a stake in this business across media types, do we have to go back to the drawing board to create a new set of common metadata?
Speakers at the Conference will discuss what video metadata are and how they relate to photo metadata. Then they will look into handling video metadata properly and finally catching up with an item which started at previous conferences: how to automate generating metadata. Speakers come from photo and video content providers, system vendors for the video industry and standardisation bodies.
The target audience for this conference are those involved in a photo business - picture agency, stock library, photographer - wanting to learn more about creating and distributing video content. Attending this day will boost your knowledge in this area.
More details of the Conference can be obtained from its website at www.phmdc.org
The participation fee is 99 EUR and will be charged at registering from the Conference website.
