U.K.-based broadcast systems integrators Megahertz will be joined at IBC2007 by key personnel from its parent company AZCAR in outlining strategic plans for helping clients migrate to high-definition digital environment.
Joining Megahertz Technical Director Steve Burgess will be company founder and CEO Stephen Pumple and recently appointed President Gavin Schutz.
Schutz joined AZCAR in May this year after serving as executive vice president and chief technology officer of Ascent Media Group. “Over the course of the next few years,” he said, “our industry will witness a shift not only from standard definition broadcasting to HD, but also a complete change in the infrastructure and workflows associated with content origination and finishing.”
Citing developing in North America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, Megahertz Technical Director Steve Burges said the need “to recognize these shifts as they are occurring in different parts of the broadcasting world, and to service them appropriately in each market.”
“Europe and North America are driving the migration to high-definition digital broadcast environments,” said Pumple, adding that he’s eager to hear other views about these industry changes.
Megahertz will be in Stand 11.610.
