  2. Cloud-based workflows are rapidly becoming standard across the screen industries – enabling real-time collaboration, remote editing, scalable rendering and more.  But how widely adopted are these tools, and what challenges still remain?   

    This panel of leading experts from across production and post will examine how the cloud is transforming the way film and TV content is made, stored, and delivered.  Exploring its impact on budgets, sustainability, international co-productions and data security, and asking what should producers, studios, and broadcasters be doing now to futureproof their workflows? 

  3. This session will spotlight how High Performance, a fast-growing UK podcast and app, transformed its production and editing processes using base's solutions. This podcast is fronted by Jake Humphrey and Damien Hughes with a loyal audience of over 1 million, featuring interviews with icons like Usain Bolt, Gordon Ramsay, and Simon Sinek. After implementing base, they migrated 78 TB of media from fragmented Dropbox storage to a metadata-driven MAM with proxy workflows, dramatically cutting turnaround times and sparking global scalability. The discussion will draw out the key challenges faced by High Performance, the decision-making journey, and the positive impact of moving to the cloud. The panel will also highlight how the right media infrastructure can streamline processes to save time and money and empower creative teams to focus more on storytelling.

  4. As cloud technology becomes embedded in film and TV production, one question cuts through the hype: is it really worth the cost?

    This fast-paced debate brings together industry experts with sharply opposing views on whether cloud-based workflows save money—or silently drain budgets. Expect bold claims, real-world experience, and sharp audience questions as the panel challenges assumptions about storage, scalability, collaboration, and whether cloud innovation truly delivers a return on investment.

  6. Security remains one of the most critical and misunderstood factors in the shift to cloud-based production. This panel pulls back the curtain on how the film and TV industry is tackling security in the cloud era. From IP protection and access control to backup protocols and disaster recovery plans, our panellists explore what’s really being done to safeguard content throughout production and post.

  7. As production workflows increasingly shift to the cloud, producers must understand the opportunities, challenges, and essential tools driving this transformation. This session offers a practical overview tailored specifically for producers who are navigating cloud-based media creation, post-production, and collaboration.  Our expert panel will discuss: 

    • The basics of cloud infrastructure and how it differs from traditional on-premises setups. 

    • Key benefits: scalability, remote collaboration, real-time asset access, and cost-efficiency. 

    • Common risks and how to mitigate them, including data security, latency, and budgeting complexity. 

    • How to manage distributed teams using cloud-native tools for asset management, review, and approval. 

    • Real-world case studies showcasing cloud-based production workflows in film, TV, and digital content. 

    Whether you’re a seasoned producer or just beginning to explore the cloud, this session will equip you with the knowledge to lead modern, flexible, and efficient productions.

  8. As cloud adoption grows across film and TV, this panel explores whether it’s the right choice for every production.  With insights from industry experts, we’ll weigh the benefits and trade-offs of cloud-based workflows versus local or hybrid alternatives, from cost, connectivity, and scalability to security, storage and long-term archiving.  Is the cloud always the smartest move, or are there better options for your budget, workflow, or infrastructure? Whether you’re already in the cloud or considering your next step, this session will help demystify the decision.
