International exhibitors at BroadcastAsia2011 to present cutting edge advancements in digital cinematography
SINGAPORE, Jun 17, 2011 - (ACN Newswire) - BroadcastAsia2011, in enabling companies to capitalise on the growing trend of quality Asian content making its way onto international screens, will be hosting its first dedicated Cinematography/Film/Production zone on the exhibition show floor at Suntec Singapore from 21-24 June 2011.
The Cinematography/Film/Production zone will be a one-stop venue for leaders in the broadcast industry to showcase groundbreaking technologies designed to improve the quality of films and enhance work efficiency. The zone for filmmakers and TV production professionals will see more than 30 exhibitors unveil their company's latest breakthroughs in visual effects, editing/colouring and creative production at levels 3 and 4 of Suntec Singapore. Exhibitors within the Cinematography/Film/Production zone are projecting robust business activity at the exhibition as the film and production industry continues to show a strong recovery from the global financial crisis.
"Film continues to be an integral focus of BroadcastAsia, and we are seeing more exhibitors leveraging the event to engage buyers with their cutting edge technologies and services. Launching the Cinematography/Film/Production zone at this year's show is just one of the many ways in which we are working to connect buyers and technology providers to advance the future of film-making in Asia," said Mr. Calvin Koh, Senior Project Manager for BroadcastAsia from show organiser, Singapore Exhibition Services.
Capitalising on Increasing Regional Investment in the Broadcast Industry

For many companies, this newly created zone will bring strong networking and sales opportunities with the presence of a ready pool of international clientele.
"BroadcastAsia2011 is a great platform for us to showcase our latest design software innovations to buyers from the regional and around the world," said Patrick de Silva, Director of The Media Village. "The reputation and international appeal of the event has gathered the broadcast industry all under one roof, making it extremely convenient and cost-effective for us to reach out to potential customers on a global scale."
