Web Entertainment
Pioneer to discuss the future of content creation and distribution in a world
where there is no “business as usual.”

Burbank, CA—November 1, 2013— Danny Zappin, co-founder and
former CEO of the pioneering YouTube network Maker Studios, will deliver the
keynote address at Createasphere’s 13th
Annual Entertainment
Technology Expo
(ETE). Entitled Wake
Up!!  There Is No “Business As Usual,”
the session will be
moderated by Benny Luo, founder of the influential web entertainment site
NewMediaRockstars. It’s scheduled for 11:00 a.m. on November 7th in
Theatre 1 at the ETE host site, the Los Angeles Marriott Burbank Airport Hotel
in Burbank, California.

In a provocative and
eye-opening session, Zappin and Luo will discuss the explosive growth in
broadband and over-the-top content and its game-changing implications for
content creators. Drawing on their personal experiences at the frontier of
online content, the two visionary leaders will offer their perspectives on the
current state of the industry, where it’s headed, and what they’re doing to
capitalize on today’s emerging opportunities. It’s a session no one who hopes
to succeed in the brave new world of digital content will want to miss.
“For those involved in creating and distributing content,
the old ways of doing business no longer hold,” says Kristin Petrovich Kennedy,
president of Createasphere, ETE’s sponsor. “Danny’s keynote will reveal what’s
new and what’s coming very quickly in television and cinema. It’s meant to be a
wake-up call, but it will also empower attendees by showing them how they can
thrive in a future that is already taking shape.”
ETE is the West Coast’s premiere exposition for content
creators, featuring technology demonstrations from more than 50 leading
software and hardware developers, as well as a packed lineup of workshops, master
classes, panel discussions and speakers, featuring the best and brightest minds
from all corners of the entertainment world.
