Tags: Humour, Multimedia, ScienceI’m going to be attending the Performing Arts Production Workshop in Trieste, Italy. It is being organised by TERENA, Internet2 and GARR.
“GARR will host the TERENA and Internet2 hands-on audio/video production workshop that will be held on 13-15 July 2009, at the Music Conservatory of Trieste, Italy. The workshop is meant to be the first in a series of annual events emphasising the equipment and staffing requirements for interactive performing arts education, multi-site performance events, and high quality netcasting over advanced networks.”
The workshop is intended to train people how to broadcast a live event. It covers video and audio production, along with encoding and streaming.
It is unusual; when you work for a National Research and Education Network (NREN), you use the phrase “bandwidth is not a problem”. It can be difficult to get this idea across to a vendor that you want a 1Gbit/s stream not a 1Mbit/s video stream. The workshop will be covering the higher end of streaming, no YouTube quality stuff here.
