Thank You To Jennifer Rose Pearl and Adam Newman - The Two Creative Geniuses Behind Infinity Festival Hollywood

BuzzFeed Studios' Dan Katt and Karolina Waclawiak joined Infinity Festival Hollywood to share how BuzzFeed Studios is leveraging #AI and digital toolsets to reach Millennial and Gen Z audiences. Powered by innovative technology and the biggest player in digital media, BuzzFeed Studios is connecting audiences with stories that they love.

Last week, the immense power of talent and technology combined took center stage at the Monolith Awards Ceremony during the Infinity Festival Hollywood. As a grand finale, Grammy Winner Nathalie Bonin delivered an extraordinary live performance of “Stormy Skies”. Enhanced by the magic of surround sound and an awe-inspiring LED setup powered by Production Resource Group, the piece came to life in a way never seen before 🫶 Audilla served as the mastering partner for this special stage appearance, while Normal Studio elevated the journey of Stormy Skies through the visual brilliance. By merging stunning NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration imagery with animations derived from brainwave analyses, Nathalie used Noukii technology to tap into the audience's emotional core. A heartfelt thank you to Paul Propster at NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory for believing in this amazing project and to Normal Studio for turning this vision into reality. 🙏🏻 It is a privilege to support this groundbreaking production, opening doors to innovative ways of experiencing live entertainment and inspiring a new generation of emerging artists. I remain utterly captivated! JAXA | Ministère de la Culture et des Communications

Last Friday, I had such a great time at the event hosted by Women in Technology: Hollywood (WiTH) co-located with Infinity Festival Hollywood ⚡️ Attending both events left me empowered with many great insights and ideas. To PRO-TEK Vaults, who allowed me to be a part of this, I’ve learned a lot. Having women role models is great to have, and I am glad to add a few to my list; Barbara Bickham, I enjoyed your Ask Me Anything segment. I love your confidence, how you encouraged it, and how you’ve built your career as a VC founder/ CTO. Renee Fraser, Ph.D., your keynote speech about using advertising for good and seeing how you’ve applied it was inspiring as a fellow marketer. Roberta Matuson, I am currently reading your book Suddenly In Charge, and I am hooked! It was also so nice of you and your daughter, Lexi Matuson, to be a power duo at the event. I’d like to thank Daniela Bocchetti for the invitation and my networking partner, Kate Obert, who rocked every event with her style and knowledge of branding and marketing overall! Always happy to see Evie Silvers Spence Bovee, and nice to meet you, Sudhir Chaurasia, Thomas Phelps and Austina Wang ☺️ Till the next event! #WiTH #WomeninTechnology #event2024
