First User Group Event

15 February, 2008
Universitat Pompeu Fabra in c/Ocata 1, Barcelona, Spain 08003 (map)


SALERO (presentation, pdf, 1.8 MB) aims at making cross media-production for games, movies and broadcast faster, better and cheaper by combining computer graphics, language technology, semantic web technologies as well as content based search and retrieval.

The Music Technology Group (MTG) of the Universitat Pompeu Fabra will host the First User Group Event of the SALERO project. We would be honored if you attend.

The purpose of the first User Group Event is to introduce the project to industry representatives and to gather feedback. During the event the participants will get a presentation on the project, hands-on demonstration of the tools as well as future plans. Based on this, a discussion will analyze suitability of tools to the task, usability, comprehensiveness of function set, integration in the workflow process, and requirements from your point of view.

We are looking forward to seeing you there!
