SGO, an ACES product partner, is delighted to announce an exclusive online event A Conversation on ACES, HDR and Creative Flexibility During a Pandemic for Amazon’s Show “Unfortunate Stories”, taking place on Thursday, 18 March 2021 at 7 PM (Madrid time, 11 AM Los Angeles time)

At this exciting panel discussion with the filmmakers, you’ll have a chance to learn how to prepare a future-proof (post)production pipeline, design a workflow that prioritizes integrity and exchange of media in a non-destructive way, providing the flexibility to handle any challenge… even a pandemic.

We will explore how different departments adapted to maintain technical standards working from home and how they even exceeded expectations: a project mastered in HDR that was initially going to be released in theaters.

At the session, presented in Spanish language, we will have the pleasure of hosting:
