The Goal: The OnDemand Content & Technology Consortium at Digital Hollywood" will take on tremendous importance within our future events. With the explosion of OnDemand Content and Services in the Entertainment industries, it will be a role of the Advisory Committee to help plan how the future of OnDemand content and technologies will emerge in the industry, in the marketplace and Digital Hollywood events. The committee will meet at regular dinners at all Digital Hollywood events, at Building Blocks, at CES and at the Media Summit New York. In addition, we look to the Advisory Committee to explore ideas such as "Creative Retreats" to bring various elements of the film, TV, Mobile and Games industries into creative dialogue.
