See you at BMFI’22

A special event on digital storytelling. Bülent Turgut, producer and founder of T World Entertainment & Production A.Ş. will meet with Bilkent University students in a live event during the Bilkent Media Future Initiative Day on April, 8 at 12:30 in FB 309, Faculty of Fine Arts, Design and Architecture.

T World Entertainment & Productions is a TV and Feature Film production company in Turkey. T World E & P is focused on creating a cinematic superhero universe, fantastic content and concept, producing them, applying successful gaming networks, creating new opportunities for companies and brands to turn their possessions into content and use them in a more interactive and integrated market through developing communication techniques, and offering new media platforms.

T world is a unique world of superheroes with distinctive mythology—through film and television series production, gaming, and merchandising.

“We knew from the get-go that creating a vast superhero universe from the ground up was not going to be easy. A serious investment in research and development, an all-encompassing and ongoing process for us, is necessary to tackle such a large-scale project,” said Bulent Turgut, creative producer and founder of T World Entertainment and Productions.

Dolby Atmos Music Recording in the Real World: Fazıl Say in Izmir 

Researchers have developed impressive models of the perceptual and psychoacoustic underpinnings of immersive audio recordings, and a number of theoretically ideal systems have been described by Hyunkook Lee and others. Applying these systems to record a specific artist in a specific acoustic environment, however, is another matter entirely. How can theoretical ideals be mapped to the messy world of on-location recording? What if the microphone types in the models don’t sound great in the concert hall? This talk will be a case study of theory vs. praxis in Fazıl Say’s recent Dolby Atmos recording of Bach’s “Goldberg Variations” for Warner Classics at Ahmed Adnan Saygun Sanat Merkezi in Izmir. 

Pieter Snapper is an American-born recording engineer, producer, and composer who moved to Turkey in 1999 to help found the Center for Advanced Studies in Music (MIAM) at İstanbul Technical University, where he then taught for over 18 years. 

Snapper is perhaps best known for recording and producing nearly 20 albums with pianist Fazil Say, but his projects range from hip hop to pop to jazz, and have included artists as varied as Ibrahim Maalouf and Peter Murphy to MFÖ, Sertab Erener, and Ajda Pekkan. He was a founding partner of Babajim İstanbul Studios & Mastering, and is now based with his family in Eskişehir, where he teaches at Anadolu University. 

Exciting News! We are getting ready for the new edition of BMFI – Bilkent Media Future Initiative on April 8, 2022. Talks and round tables on music recording, immersive sound, Dolby Atmos, HDR imagery, and the future of Post-Production live @ FFB 08 COMD BITS STUDIO and via YouTube. Stay tuned! More to come!

You can watch the teaser following this link on YouTube.

Two case studies will be presented Thursday 17th morning at the 10-keynotes on UX and Game design. Onur Saka and Onur Şentüre will join BMFI and present their works.
