What Our Members Say:

"As a business oriented executive with responsibility for launching a new technology business for a large player in the entertainment industry, joining an organization that was about the intersection of technology and entertainment was a timely and welcome prospect. In addition to being exposed to presentations at DCR events from some of the brightest minds in the industry, the opportunity to network with fellow members has been interesting, productive and enjoyable. These interactions have led to valuable new insights and relationships that could lead to economic benefit to my business."
Bill Doeren, Former VP Entertainment Imaging division & GM, Kodak Digital Cinema

"The DCR allows me to develop strategic partnerships between industry and NASA. These partnerships will add to the vitality of the Digital Coast."
Ken Dozier, Executive Director, NASA Far West RTTC

“Excellent programming and well-attended networking events.”
Teri Ghaemmaghami, Regional Marketing Manager, Morrison & Foerster LLP

"The Visual Arts Programs at UCLA Extension and DCR share the common mission of promoting the need for media art literacy and the vibrancy of working in this arena. DCR provides us with a critical forum to discuss, advocate, plan and execute innovative course programming across the spectrum of media arts. This community of information is an invaluable resource to both our academic programs and our students."
Scott Hutchinson, Director of Visual Arts,UCLA Extension

"I joined the DCR in the late 90's it was, at that time, the preeminent organization for entertainment and technology companies. It provided education on bleeding edge technologies and networking with "legends of the industry". It is 2007 and today it provides resources for education and networking in a much broader range of industries and companies having grown with technology. It is one of my most important associations."
Phillis Lane, Ballantine Systems LLC

"The DCR helps its members take their game to a new level ... it's exciting to leverage the ideas, resources, talent, and relationships of the DCR's amazing set of human resources."
John Manulis, CEO, Producer, Visionbox Media Group

"DCR is an organization that really understands the fusion of entertainment, content and technology. The programs, speakers and forums are forward-thinking and provide members with the vital trend and business information needed to succeed in this rapidly changing environment."
Julie Schlax-Patrick, President, Palma Creative, Inc.

"I was first introduced to the Digital Coast Roundtable when I was starting up a new business at Hughes in 1999, which later became Boeing Digital Cinema. I was invited to participate in a panel discussion focusing upon this new industry-changing technology. The foresight and vision of the DCR was remarkable, since there were only a few digital cinema test sites operating at that time and no standards had yet been defined for the architecture. This forward-thinking forum supports and enables the intellectual framework dialogue which propels new technology applications into the market place. I can think of no better organization to focus the convergence of media, music, film, and other industries through technology."
Frank Stirling, CEO, Stirling Media, Inc.

"Membership in the DCR offers a comfortable place to meet with competitors as well as suppliers and customers to discuss important concepts and issues that impact the entertainment industry. The roundtable discussions at UCLA allow for a hands-on approach to learning and networking."
Leonard J. Washington, III, Former President, Paramount Digital Entertainment
