Bill Beck, the Barco laser guy, is on his way to CinemaCon 2015. In the run up to CinemaCon, he will share his insights and thoughts on laser projection every day. Join his journey and learn how laser projection is the biggest thing cinema has seen since the start of digitization. CinemaCon 2015 will go down in history as 'the laser year'.
I’m packing my luggage to go to CinemaCon 2015 and I want to invite you to follow my journey in the coming days. Every year, this show is the highlight for the entire cinema industry and the 2015 edition will be no exception. The only question is: “What will be the buzz of the show?”. My bet: laser.
