Keith Wymbs, VP of MarketingToday, we're excited to announce a recent addition to our executive team: video, IPTV and telecommunications veteran, Keith Wymbs. As Vice President of Marketing, Wymbs leads the development and implementation of Elemental’s worldwide marketing strategy, including expansion of our enterprise product line. With extensive marketing, product management and overall business experience in the video space, Keith has worked at every stage of a company's lifespan. How'd Elemental get so lucky? Keith can tell it best himself:

"I’m joining Elemental almost two years to the day after waving a temporary goodbye to the video industry. It was a thrill ride to see the transition to HD, the rapid adoption of DVRs, the fits and starts of internet video, and the telecom industry’s strategic move from bits and bytes to experience and entertainment with the adoption of IPTV. And now I’m back to participate in the real-time streaming revolution of online video. So, what’s the story?

Camera for Live StreamingWhen it comes to live streaming (aka webcasting), everybody's doing it. It's now commonplace to watch the news or playoffs on TV as well as on our laptops and smart phones. Watching current events, like the gubernatorial races across the country, are no exception. Who wants to wait for the recap at 10 o'clock or for the Newsweek Index next week to see who put their foot in their mouth on the campaign trail today? We want our content live, in real-time, and when necessary, free from the tether of the television.

Broadcasters here in Oregon, such as NBC-affiliate KGW Channel 8 and Oregon Public Broadcasting (OPB), are getting in on the political action by streaming our candidates' debates live. In addition, OPB's multi-channel approach for the "Think Out Loud" series includes a radio broadcast this morning and TV broadcast tonight at 9 p.m. PT, along with live streaming to the web with content encoded by Elemental Live.
