DMW Awards 2019 Finalists

Digital Media World is proud to announce the finalists for the 2019 Digital Media World Awards, recognising excellence and innovation in the world of content creation, delivery and management for broadcast and screened content. Find them listed below, and see more information about each finalist here. 

The products entered into the Awards reflect the trends evident across the industry and at the major shows over the past year, including NAB and IBC. Migrating to IP video delivery and distribution, for example, is gaining importance for broadcasters and video operators, and hardware and software developers are releasing products that help make the move in stages. Live production of video, studio-based and remote, to be streamed live or recorded for linear distribution, is an element of several entered products.

Watching use of the cloud expand not only for storage but also for content processing, manipulation  and sharing, is very interesting as well. Developments in public and private clouds have made the different advantages of large and small-scale broadcast accessible to different types of organisations. As a part of that trend, interest in virtualisation of traditionally hardware-based functions is continuing as well.

AI and machine learning are appearing in new or updated products in which automation is growing more important, such as intelligent storage. Because the need for storage has never been greater, data  management assisted through AI is also expanding.

The winners in each category will be announced on 14 December - watch this space.
