NAB Show Product of the Year Award Winners were selected by a panel of industry experts in 15 categories and announced in a live awards ceremony at NAB Show on April 16. To be eligible for an award, nominated products had to come from companies exhibiting at the 2024 NAB Show and be delivered within the 2024 calendar year.
“NAB Show is the ultimate marketplace showcasing the latest trends and technology spanning creation, distribution and monetization in the broadcast, media and entertainment industry,” said senior vice president and chief customer success officer Eric Trabb, NAB Global Connections and Events. “Congratulations to ARwall for winning the prestigious 2024 NAB Show Product of the Year Award, a testament to the groundbreaking innovation embodied by ARFX. Its profound impact on the content lifecycle underscores its pivotal role in empowering storytellers to navigate present challenges and embrace the opportunities of tomorrow.”
The Co-Founder & CEO of the winning company, ARwall, posted this statement on social media regarding the win:
"Out of 1300 companies with booths at NAB Show 2024 this year, less than 100 walk away with a Product of the Year award. ARwall's ARFX XR/AI Filmmaking Suite won in the highly coveted AI category, in which both major corps and startups competed. This year, most of the AI awards went to audio and data companies where most of the strides are being made. Many VP companies presented AI products at the show, but only ARFX received an award. Why?
I believe it's because at the core we've expanded our focus as a company to empowering 3 people who are crucial to the storytelling process: writers, directors, and editors.
That means we need a multimodal solution, the usage of multiple AI models and output/input media, to fill in the gaps between these storytellers. ARFX Infinite Studio was our answer, a persistent AI assistant that remembers all the creative details of your project as you use it, and uses that insight to improve the output of all future creations.
In addition, it was important to us that all the user's data be both private and portable, the key distinctions of ownership. As filmmakers ourselves, we believe there's no room in the industry for AI companies hoping to unfairly commercialize the data of its most avid and talented users merely because there is no private alternative for creative users not capable of deploying that highly-technical private solution locally. So here we are, we are that alternative for those creators. The fact that industry professionals actually understood that message and responded to it is extremely encouraging. Perhaps we are understanding the ethical concerns industry professionals might have because those are our concerns as well."
