MovieLabs and its studio members (Paramount Pictures Corporation, Sony Pictures Entertainment, Universal City Studios, The Walt Disney Studios, and Warner Bros. Entertainment) will be joined by Adobe, Amazon Web Services, Avid, Dolby, DreamWorks Animation, and Skywalker Sound in the Forum’s Leadership Council.
