Here’s a Gallery of 170 images from my 4 days at NAB, 3 prep days, 3 days of press conferences, 8 miles each day racing from meeting to meeting, 6,000 pounds of Film and Digital Times delivered on 3 skids to 3 Freestanding Publication Bins, our booth C10106, and the 70 booths of our sponsors. Thank you Laura Riggs, Cecilia Montano and the staff at NAB, The Freeman Crew who constantly refilled and replenished the bins, and to all our readers, colleagues and companies. Additional reports and comments to follow.
