91
92<p>Getting Serious with Web Video</p>
93
94<p>This presentation introduces Seriously.js, a Javascript library for performing real-time video compositing effects in a browser with WebGL, exploring the lessons learned and the possibilities of combining the best of cinema with the best of the web. I&rsquo;ll give a broad overview of the technical achievements and challenges, explore the art of designing an API for a creative audience, and project how far we&rsquo;ll push the browser technology in the next year. Expect shiny demos.</p>

104<p>Panel: Does HTML5 offer a montage moment for web cinema?</p>
105
106<p>Imagine if you could weave the sum of all human knowledge seamlessly into your film or documentary. New technologies like HTML5 make this possible. Video, audio and animation no longer needs to be in a &ldquo;black box&rdquo;, separate from other elements on a page. Recent works like The Wilderness Downtown, 3 Dreams of Black, and the hypervideo experiments from Mozilla&rsquo;
106s Web Made Movies lab point to a radical shift in how we think of moving images. In the same way that montage pioneers like Eisenstein and Griffiths showed us that new formal and technical possibilities could blow our perceptions of cinema wide open, these panelists will bring examples and ideas that point to the storytelling potential when the web is fused with the power of cinema. The panel will include a brief presentation of a few innovative examples that feature high quality story and aesthetics as well as advanced technologies like: WebGL, Popcorn.js and the upcoming HTML Stream Processing API (an open standard for browser access to camera and microphone).</p>

115
116<p>Modern web broswers can make some amazing audiovisual candy, through new capabilities like HTML5, fast Javascript, and WebGL. All these capabilities point to untapped creative possibilities—though we’re starting to see some really cool web-native cinema, like Google Creative Lab’s Three Dreams of Black and NFB’s 1 Millionth Tower; and in a burgeoning WebGL gaming community. In this session, members of the web demoscene and creative communities will take turns showcasing their cool hacks and proofs-of-concept. Stuff like 3D and physics, beat detection, video processing, chromakey and lumakey, and more. Free form discussion, and possibly hacking, will follow.</p>
