In this session Justin will run through the components that make up the Microsoft Media Platform, MMP Player, Content Manager, Video Editor, Audience Insight and Expression Encoder.

Javascript frameworks are out there to make animation easy. How easy is it in Silverlight? I’ll run through recreating the effects demos on http://madrobby.github.com/scriptaculous/combination-effects-demo/ in Silverlight. Expect Blend, demos, and No talk on Win8! ;) *Jason's Bio:* Jason Schluter has been a keen Silverlight programmer since Silverlight 1.1 alpha following the rise of Silverlight in huge media and business application projects, and waiting patiently for the arrival of 3d Support in Silverlight.
