Section Meetings
The sound stage of the De Anza College Film/TV Department served as the kickoff for the first SMPTE Student Chapter in Silicon Valley history. On 22 February, John Shike, director of educational institutions, SMPTE Membership Committee, and SMPTE President Pat Griffis, demonstrated that networking among media professionals and students is as important as SMPTE's industry-standard time code, universal film leader, and color bars. After the meet-and-greet portion of the SMPTE/Media Forward event, attendees enjoyed Steven Lampen's presentation of “The Road Less Taken” on the topic of finding future jobs in the media industry. Larry Kaplan, president of SDVI, presented “The Road Taken,” about jobs and the need for talent to support the media technology industry. A lively Q&A followed.
