Castlabs joins HPA to bolster media production security and innovation

Exciting times ahead! We’re thrilled to share our latest move to work even more closely with movie studios and the production industry: Castlabs is now part of the Hollywood Professional Association (HPA). This milestone marks a significant advancement in our ongoing commitment to revolutionize and enhance the content security of the media production and entertainment sector.

The HPA, a renowned trade organization serving professionals in the media and entertainment production industry, is dedicated to progressing the art, science, and business of content creation, distribution, and technology. By fostering networking, education, and advocacy, the HPA creates a space for innovation and collaboration within the dynamic landscape of digital media.

Our journey with the HPA began at their Tech Retreat in February 2024. There, we saw the benefits of connecting with the industry’s outstanding experts, hearing their ideas on the future of production technology, and taking the opportunity to showcase our groundbreaking solutions – unveiling advancements in forensic watermarking and secure remote workflows to an audience at the forefront of industry development.

“We’ve found an exceptional platform to share our resolutions” noted Michael Stattmann, Castlabs’ co-founder. “We are actively addressing leakage concerns through single-frame watermarking and enhancing remote workflow security with our DRM for WebRTC remote desktop solution. Our membership with HPA aligns us with like-minded individuals striving towards shared industry goals.”

Our affiliation with HPA amplifies our role in fortifying security measures and introducing top-notch workflow solutions within the media production ecosystem. By joining forces with HPA, we’re also immersing ourselves in a realm ripe with possibilities – partnering with top talents, pushing boundaries in media production capabilities, and contributing to an exciting era of innovation.
