You are Cordially Invited Higher Education Digital Video Summit Friday, March 26, 2010, 10am - 4pm Consulate General of Canada in New York City 1251 Avenue of the Americas (Sixth Ave), NY, NY (between 49th & 50th Streets) Canada Room (located on the concourse level of the building) This summit will bring together buyers, distributors and filmmakers to discuss and develop agreements on best practices for streaming video. While numerous meetings at various organizations over the years have addressed some of these issues, we believe the time is ripe to develop policies and practices for distribution and delivery for higher education that are agreeable to all stakeholders. This will be a working session not only to brainstorm, but to produce guidelines we can all agree to and will help shape the future of video distribution in higher education. Seating is limited. Please register by sending an email to Jane Hutchison at [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>. You will be confirmed with a return email and a quick information sheet to complete that will be distributed at the meeting. Background readings will be provided with your confirmation. Registration closes on March 23rd. There is a $35 registration fee to cover lunch and cleaning. Join us for this important dialogue to create agreements on practices. Your voice is needed.
