  Modern production, post production and broadcast facilities are
  embracing IT technology at an ever increasing pace. The savings
  delivered by networked file based workflows have forever changed the
  capture, storage, and manipulation and delivery of imagery. Image
  compression technology has also advanced over the past ten years,
  this new CODEC technology when combined with IT workflows should
  result in even greater efficiency and savings. The presenter will
  discuss the development of the Panasonic AVC-I CODEC, a new high
  definition intra-frame H.264 compression CODEC implementation that
  promises unparalleled HD quality with bit rates normally associated
  with SD.
