At the April 17 Content Protection Summit at NAB (CPS@NAB), being held at the SAHARA Theater in Las Vegas, Michelle Munson, CEO and founder of Eluvio, and Mark Nakano, VP of content security for Warner Bros. Discovery, will not only look at the future of how we deliver entertainment, but also how we’re going to protect it.
In their discussion — “Emerging Consumption: Living Movie Experience” — they’ll highlight a first-of-a-kind, Web3-native movie experience created, distributed, and sold to fans on the blockchain for a major feature film.
Created for the Lord of the Rings, this “Living Movie Experience” is sold as a non-fungible blockchain token replacing EST of the past. The interactive, immersive experience allows fans to discover embedded WebXR objects and enjoy images, special audio commentary, and many hours of exclusive content directly in their Media Wallet.
They also own, on the blockchain, an NFT associated with the experience whose ownership authorises their exclusive access to all the content and the full 4K UHD film (with more than 20 language localisations), with strong DRM. These assets are also served directly from the master source without the use of any traditional Web2 (CDNs, clouds, etc.) components.
This session offers a glimpse into the next-gen entertainment supply chain, and what will be needed to keep it secure.
Since 2018, the Content Delivery & Security Association (CDSA) has gathered the security community in Las Vegas during NAB for the Content Protection Summit. The afternoon of keynotes, panels and industry insights will examine the entire entertainment supply chain. The event will be both in-person and online in the MESAVerse, MESA’s virtual work environment for its members and communities.
The 2023 Content Protection Summit is presented by Fortinet and sponsored by Convergent, Signiant, Verimatrix, Eluvio, NAGRA, PDG Consulting and EIDR. The event is produced by MESA, in association with NAB and the Content Delivery and Security Association (CDSA).
