NY Video Meetup Event (ft. Mobile Journalism): Thu Mar 21

Hi NY Video Meetup peeps,

Tonight is the NY Video Meetup (ft. Mobile Journalism) at Vimeo's HQ.

This event will be centered around Mobile Journalism (MoJo). The idea is that every age is shaped by its storytellers. With 6 billion smartphones out there, everyone is a mobile video creator. It’s the lens through which we see and share the world. There’s no greater opportunity for this revolution than telling true stories, especially with the proliferation of generative AI content.

6 p.m. Doors open.

• Networking and enjoying light bites/ beverages

7 p.m. Guest speaker lineup.

• Mick Reed, Founder/CEO of MiMojo. Finding Your Mojo: Using smartphones as complete production tools with case studies from Ukraine.
• Lee Shoulders, Director of Content Partnerships at Getty Images. Exploring the landscape of mobile video content.
• Caroline Scott, Content Creation Specialist at LumaTouch. How the mobile age has revolutionized content creation and demo the pro editing app, LumaFusion, Apple’s iPad App of the Year 2021.
• Nick Quested, Executive Director at Goldcrest Films. Sharing anecdotes from J6 where he was filming the insurrection at the US Capitol while embedded with the Proud Boys.
• Bob Caniglia, Director of Sales Operations, North America at Blackmagic Design. How the Blackmagic Camera app adds Blackmagic Design’s digital film camera controls and image processing to the iPhone, as well as how the Blackmagic Cloud workflow lets customers record to Blackmagic Cloud Storage and automatically sync with DaVinci Resolve, effectively getting footage to the newsroom or post-production studio in minutes.
