All Video-All the Time: Next Generation in Media Technologies Creating and Maintaining a Rich Media Internet & Mobile Based Broadcasting Network
As video reaches into all sectors of the media space, content, the technology, the devices, the infrastructure, the entire way that companies and groups, large and small approach their work will alter. What had been a web news group is now a video production unti. What had been a print publication with a website becomes an indie television network. What had been a blog becomes a vlog. The consumer is expecting to see all-video all the time and media companies, big and small, from giant magazine conglomerates to school newspapaers are going to have to think in terms of video 24/7 if they wish to break through the crowd and serve their customer base. All-video all the time is a challenge but it may also be the most exciting hurdle the technology industry has created yet.
