Emerging Trends in the Entertainment Industry

A workshop discussing emerging trends and technologies that are transforming the media industry and California economy.

Representatives from digital media and entertainment companies will share their stories about the new ways media users are finding, watching, using, and sharing content.

The workshop will also address the major transformations that have already impacted traditional production in motion pictures, television and the news industry. Digital downloads have already changed the recording industry forever and digital media has changed the way people find and read the latest news.

What’s next and how will the CSU help respond to these new challenges?

The CSU produces 46 percent of the state’s undergraduates in the media culture and design industries. This includes 88 percent of the radio and television broadcasting degrees, 66 percent of journalism and mass communications degrees, 59 percent of the visual and performing arts degrees and 58 percent of fine arts and art studies degrees.

As social networking, Internet distribution, and immersive media continue to expand, the CSU will continue to fuel its workforce and leadership.
