EuroITV is the leading international conference for media related to video and television. EuroITV is attended by academia and professionals from all over the world to discuss latest advances and research of media technology, HCI, media studies, and the content creation community. In addition to previous years' topics of the conference, EuroITV 2010 offers new opportunities this year:

  • Interactive Content & Arts Track: EuroITV 2010 extends its tracks with a new track to explicitly attract the creative media production community dealing with interactive video, 3D cinema, TV program formats, film production, and consumers as content creators and contributors.
  • Video in the Age of Web3.0.: EuroITV 2010 faces the challenges of TV as changing environment and explicitly invites contributions dealing with user-generated content, video in social networking, mashup networks, IPTV, cross-media, broadcasting everywhere, 3D cinema/3D IPTV/3D content, and video.
  • EuroITV Competition Grand Challenge: EuroITV 2010 also offers a competition opened for artistic content creators, application developers, and service designers to get awarded by EuroITV.
  • Targeted Workshops: EuroITV 2010 features also targeted workshops. We are interested in, and especially calling for  workshop proposals featuring the following themes: TV and Video in BRIC and emerging Countries, 3D, etc. In difference to general workshop submissions, workshop contributions are published in the ACM Online Digital Library, and they shall enable us the development of new themes and topics.
