Tubefilter’s Guide to Digital Hollywood LA 2012

It’s springtime in Los Angeles. But in a city that’s 72 degrees and sunny 90% of the time, how do you know that spring has sprung? It’s Digital Hollywood time!

The semi-annual conference is a massive event that aims to cover the art and business of the intersection of entertainment and digital technology. Panels, dinners and several co-located events will take place at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in the Spring 2012 incarnation of the event at the Marina del Rey from Monday, April 30th through Thursday, May 3rd.

The full agenda can be found here, but in order to help out Tubefilter readers, we’ve noted a few sessions and panels that may be of special interest to those in the online video industry.
