DescriptionThe pandemic has disrupted no other part of the content supply chain more strongly than content creation. The rapid expansion of on-demand streaming platforms is feeding a growing demand for episodic content having the production quality of Hollywood movies. How should educators skill up the next generation of artists while promoting diversity and equitable access to the technologies and processes of tomorrow? Our panel of experts spanning industry and education will explore how we can work together to help shape a better post-pandemic world.
