Speaker: Tom Shaw (UK)
Business Director & Executive Producer of Digital Theatre
Introduction
Launched in 2009, Digital Theatre is the world's biggest on-demand platform specializing delivering arts contents. Instead of “filming” a production, Digital Theatre “captures” what happens in live theatre and showcases them internationally. It creates a film version adding onto live theatre, not to replace it. Digital Theatre is the extension of theatre and a global auditorium for people to enjoy performances from their own homes.
In this presentation, one of the founders of Digital Theatre, Tom Shaw talks about the goal and services of Digital Theatre.
