Panelists for the session will include Rod Bogart, director of production R+D at HBO; Katie Hinsen, finishing artists at Light Iron; and Hugo Gaggioni, chief technology officer for the broadcast and production systems division of Sony Electronics.
The panel will discuss issues ranging from proper reference levels for grading HDR content to gaps in delivery pipelines to capabilities of home displays. The group will also explore implementation options, whether HDR content will be compatible with existing delivery systems, what must happen for HDR to become usable in the home, and standards needed to support creation and delivery of HDR.
