    AAF Awareness

    Late last year, the Advanced Authoring Format (AAF) Association sponsored a day-long event for post-production staff, broadcasters, programmers, tech-heads, and anyone else interested in learning more about the AAF. The program began with an overview of AAF and the AAF Association and then delved into more technical information, which included AAF use cases, real-world demos of the format in action, and technically oriented breakout sessions.
