SMPTE Releases 'Honor Roll' Book
SMPTE has announced the release of a limited edition book – The Honor Roll and Honorary Members of the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers – highlighting the leaders and innovators who have contributed their talents to SMPTE over the past 100 years.
The Society is also accepting pre-orders for 'Magic & Miracles: 100 Years of Moving Image Science & Technology'. This book provides a crafted history of the Society and its groundbreaking work over the past century. Both books have been released to celebrate the SMPTE's Centennial.
A 100-page hardcover book, The Honor Roll and Honorary Members of the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers, is available to purchase here. The SMPTE member price is $25. Non-members may purchase for $30.
A special pre-order price is available for 'Magic & Miracles: 100 Years of Moving Image Science & Technology', a 350-page commemorative book that highlights the history and work of the Society and its members.
"'Magic & Miracles' is a must-have for any friend of SMPTE — and actually anyone interested in the history of film and broadcast technology, as well as the media technology of the future," said Barbara Lange, SMPTE Executive Director. "With remarkable photographs, movie stills, and personal narratives reflecting on the past and future, this historic book will be a valued addition to any library."
It is available to pre-order here and is scheduled for publication in April 2017. The pre-order price for SMPTE members is $59.94 or $75 for non-members. Pre-orders will be shipped immediately upon the book's publication.
Philip J. Cianci, editorial director for both titles, said: "Since its inception, the Society has bestowed Honorary Membership or posthumous Honor Roll induction to 89 recipients. These individuals have contributed significantly to the industry's advancement, with many also playing vital roles within SMPTE. Through the biographical profiles in this book, readers gain insight into the lives of these outstanding individuals and their innovative accomplishments that have facilitated the progression of motion-imaging technology from the earliest days of motion pictures, through the advent of television, to today's digital media world."
