The Briefing Room

Harold Moss, founder/creative director of FlickerLab, a multimedia design and animation studio for film, television, commercials, and the Web, will participate in the Sports Video Group (SVG) produced D-Sports 2007 Conference, part of the New York Post-Production Conference, at AMC 34th Street in Manhattan, Wednesday, October 24th, 2:30 - 3:30 P.M.

The broadband sports landscape is exploding with new technologies and companies that provide sports content owners with more and more ways to reach sports fans — anywhere and anytime. The D-Sports 2007 Conference is geared toward sports technology professionals involved with production and distribution of sports content via broadband, cell phones and digital cinema and will cover content acquisition, management and monetization issues across three screens - broadcast, broadband, and mobile.

Harold Moss will be part of the “New Media, New Money: Growing Fans, Growing Revenues” panel. Every network and league faces the twin challenges of cutting production and distribution costs while generating new revenues across three screens. How are today‘s broadband and mobile sports producers and distributors monetizing content? What are the best methods available to effectively measure audiences and how are those technologies growing more sophisticated?
