The Power of a Skilled Production Team: Streaming Media Live at the CCRE Summit 2024 Yesterday, Streaming Media Live had the privilege of supporting the California Association of Realtors (CAR) and the California Center for Real Estate (CCRE) at the CCRE Summit, their flagship event of 2024. This Summit brought together thought leaders across government, business, and academia to discuss California’s most pressing housing challenges. Our team provided comprehensive video production and transmission, ensuring a seamless experience for both the live audience and remote participants. This year’s Summit included insightful panels and keynote addresses on essential topics, from the state of homeownership to housing supply solutions and policy initiatives. It was our honor to amplify these critical discussions and bring the event to a broader professional network. At Streaming Media Live, we understand that high-quality production goes beyond technology—it’s about assembling the right skilled professionals to deliver exceptional results.

From the Latest FilmLA Report • Scripted TV production in Los Angeles dropped 99% in Q3 2023 compared to 2022. • FilmLA calls for a significant expansion of California’s $330 million production incentive due to a 20% drop in local filming. • Other jurisdictions like New York, Ontario, Georgia, and the U.K. offer more competitive, uncapped or larger subsidies, putting California at a disadvantage. • Strikes in 2023 and a decline in Peak TV also contributed to a production slowdown. • Global production declines occurred, with Georgia and the U.K. also seeing reduced TV releases. • California temporarily boosted its incentives in 2021, but ongoing state budget deficits limit further expansions. • FilmLA warns California must act to support its entertainment industry or face continued market share losses.

Streaming bundles are essentially the 2.0 copy/paste of 1990s basic cable. Most in the media business saw bundling as the inevitable conclusion, I'm just surprised it took so long to get here. The past is [always] prologue. #streaming #ott #vod #avod #svod #fast #ctv https://lnkd.in/gcpwSWrQ

From programming show control to wiring LED walls and developing interactive content, Bridgewater's Media & Technology team's responsiblities are expansive. But what does Brian Dressel, our VP of Media and Tech consider his #1 job? Making the technology invisible. Because it's not about the tech, it's about the experience. #interactivemedia #experientialmarketing #experiencedesign

“Warner Music Group (WMG) CEO Robert Kyncl has come out in favor of a US Senate bill that would crack down on unauthorized deepfakes, arguing that the technology could ruin lives, reputations and businesses if left unchecked. Although many in the music business are embracing AI, it’s also the case that “generative AI is appropriating artists’ identities and producing deepfakes that depict people doing, saying, or singing things that never happened,” Kyncl will tell a subcommittee of the Senate Judiciary Commitee on Tuesday (April 30). “Through AI, it is very easy for someone to impersonate me and cause all manner of havoc,” Kyncl said, according to his pre-prepared remarks shared with MBW. “They could speak to an artist in a way that could destroy our relationship. They could say untrue things about our publicly traded company to the media that would damage our business.” #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #Legal #GenerativeAi #GeAi #Music #MusicBusiness #Musicians #Musica #MusicIndustry #Musique #Musik #MusicLicensing #WMG #MusicVideos #Artists #MusicBiz #Streaming #StreamingServices #StreamingMedia #WarnerMusicGroup #USCongress #USA

Another round of excitement and rebirths to emerge from #Hollywood as #Paramount, the original producer of #thegodfather seeks to re-create itself as a creative-tech hybrid. I am curious to see what the meat on those bones, given the tendency for large companies to use technology at its edges rather than making it a core operational focus. The fact they have now referenced #directoconsumer, #AI, and even #layoffs suggests that they are looking at the right things and understand the difficult challenges for legacy companies to compete in the new era. The fact that David Ellison's father is CEO of Oracle and is part of the deal makes these claims a little more credible. Expect to see more of these #spins as those left reeling from the #streamingwars find their next footing. #innovation

Did some say #FREE? Haivision Play ISR. Possibly the most powerful desktop player for Mission Critical Video. And yes, it of course supports #SRT. For those of you who may not know, #ISR (Intelligense Surveillance Reconnaissance) is a term used in #Defense and #PublicSafety related to capturing, distributing, viewing, and analyzing real-time video that depends entirely on the associated metadata for #SituationalAwareness and #DecisionMaking. Thanks Jerry Cooley and John Leipper and Haivision’s awesome developers.

“In 2022, the Copyright Royalty Board (CRB) accepted a (near) music industry-wide settlement to improve songwriters’ streaming royalty rates in the United States from January 1, 2023. The settlement – known as ‘Phonorecords IV’ or ‘CRB IV’ – will see songwriters and music publishers paid a headline rate of 15.35% of a given interactive streaming service’s US revenue by 2027. That rate is being ‘phased in’, because ‘Phonorecords IV’ covers the five-year period between 2023 and 2027: In 2023 (starting January 1), songwriters and music publishers were to be paid a headline rate of 15.1% of a US service’s revenue; in 2024, this increased to 15.2%; in 2025, it will increase to 15.25%; in 2026 it will increase to 15.3%; and in 2027 it will reach 15.35%. The deal also included a number of changes to other components of the rate, including increases to the per-subscriber minimums and the “Total Content Costs (TCC)” calculations which reflect the rates that services pay to record labels.” #Spotify #NMPA #Streaming #Legal #StreamingRoyalties #Royalties #RecordedMusic #StreamingServices #StreamingMedia #MusicStreams #MusicRoyalties #Songs #Recordings #US #Music #MusicBusiness #Musica #MusicIndustry #Musique #Musik #MusicBiz #Songwriters #MusicPublishing #RecordLabels
