Singapore -- Organisers for BroadcastAsia2007, the region’s premier
Broadcasting event, have revealed that the show will increase its
presence for Comgraphics&Animation2007. Over 80% of exhibition space
has already been booked, testament to the event’s relevance and
growing importance of the Broadcasting and Animation industries in
Asia. |

“This is in keeping
with market trends and especially across Asia, where the animation
industry is set to grow to epic proportions” Said Stephen Tan, Chief
Executive with organiser Singapore Exhibition Services.
For the first time in its 12-year history, BroadcastAsia2007, will
dedicate extra floor space to accommodate this new focus area. In
2006, the event was housed in halls 7 & 8 at the Singapore Expo. In
2007, organisers will be utilising half of hall 9 which will
incorporate the Comgraphics&Animation2007 exhibition show floor.
In addition, the show floor at ComGraphics&Aimation2007 will be
divided into 4 distinct physical areas.
At the Recruitment Zone, aspiring digital artists can speak to the
recruiters looking to hire talented individuals for their company,
and those wishing to embark on an education in this area can obtain
information from various leading educational institutions.
At the Interactive Zone, visitors can dive into hands-on demos and
get up close with the latest technologies on offer, while at the
Exhibitors’ Tech Talk Zone, visitors can listen in to exhibitors who
will be sharing insights and knowledge on CGI and Interactive
Digital Media techniques and trends in a 45 minute presentation.
As with previous years, the show will also include an Animation
Screening & Digital Art Gallery, where visitors can sit back and be
treated to a screening of selected animation entries and top-line
award winning productions by other professional artists. A tour of
the Digital Art Gallery is also offers a kaleidoscope of creative
works set around various themes.
Conference & Artist Workshops will also be held alongside the
exhibition. The event will also be the venue to host the annual
Comgraph Competition, organised by ACM Siggraph Singapore.
Other improvements at BroadcastAsia2007 include gentler hall
lighting and an enhanced registration process where visitors only
need to register once to access both CommunicAsia2007 and
BroadcastAsia2007 halls.
“We’ve listened to feedback from exhibitors and visitors and have
taken steps to improve their overall experience at BroadcastAsia.
With less light coming into the halls, products that are receptive
to glare can be demonstrated with improved clarity, this would be
closer to the environment found in production studios or editing
rooms, where lighting tends to be a lot milder. A one-time
registration also allows faster and easier movement of people
between halls”, added Tan.
BroadcastAsia2007 will be held from the 19th to the 22nd of June and
incorporates ProfessionalAudioTechnology2007. The event is held in
conjunction with ComGraphics&Animation2007, InteractiveDME,
CommunicAsia2007 and Enterprise IT2007
