- June 18th, 2026 Beyond Pixels: Mastering a better SDR and HDR using HDR.
- Presented By:
- Joe Kane, at Joe kane Productions, JKP
- Overview: At the upcoming STE meeting on June 18th, imaging pioneer Joe Kane explores how modern UHD and HDR have turned the electronic canvas into a confusing "Pandora’s Box"; of technical options.
- Kane demystifies these complex formats by viewing them through the timeless lens of traditional film heritage and pure artistic intent. He discusses that mastering today's imaging standards is less about chasing extreme display Pixels and far more about harnessing high bit depth.
- Attendees will discover how the PQ system strategically allocates 50% of its digital steps to the lowest 1% of the dynamic range, providing unparalleled shadow detail where the heart of the story lives. Kane will also demonstrate how high-bit-depth HDR workflows can fundamentally improve the contrast and clarity of legacy SDR deliverables.
