WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., and S o Paulo - Aug. 27 2019 - SMPTE , the organization that is defining the future of storytelling, is partnering with the Brazilian Society of Television Engineering (SET) to announce a new joint membership program.

Available at a great rate, joint membership brings exciting opportunities for professionals in the motion-imaging field in Brazil to expand their creative and technical knowledge while connecting to the global SMPTE community to drive innovation.

The joint membership program will enable SMPTE and SET to cooperate on their shared goals:

Drive technological innovation

Share content from each Societys journal

Strengthen partnerships and promoting opportunities with local and international associations

The benefits of being an SMPTE Member include discounts on SMPTE Standards and conference papers, access to the SMPTE Member directory, complementary technology and standards webcasts, a complimentary subscription to monthly newsletters, and discounts on SMPTE courses, conferences, and events. SET members who opt to invest in SMPTE membership will gain online-only access to the SMPTE Motion Imaging Journal, as well as the opportunity to join or form local Sections.

Its a pleasure to be teaming up with SMPTE to the benefit of both our organizations, said SET Executive Director Olimpio Franco.
