SMPTE (the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers) has announced the Board officers and Regional Governors who have begun serving their terms at the beginning of January.
Three SMPTE officers are continuing their service, each for an additional two-year term from 1 January 2024, to 31 December 2025. The re-elected officers include Standards Vice President Sally Hattori, Finance Vice President Paul Stechly, and Membership Vice President Rose Lockwood. They will continue to serve alongside current Board officers, President Renard T Jenkins, Executive Vice President Richard Welsh, Education Director Michael Zink, Secretary Lisa Hobbs, and past President Hans Hoffmann.
‘Serving SMPTE in any capacity means supporting a good cause, but acting as a Vice President for the organisation shows that SMPTE members trust me too,’ Lockwood says. ‘I will honour that trust and do what I can for our Society.’
In addition to the officers, six regional governors were elected by the Society to serve two-year terms in 2024-2025. These include the following regional governors, re-elected to continue their service.
Also elected were two newcomers to the SMPTE Board.
‘We are thrilled about these election results,’ says SMPTE Executive Director David Grindle. ‘Our members trust each and every one of these individuals, and we expect tremendous things from them. Together, 2024 and 2025 will see us continue to provide value to our members close to home and around the globe.’
