Crafting beautiful video frames with code

🕓 11:15 am - 12:00 pm📍 River Room 2 (Lv 3)

Programmatic Video is not an intuitive concept. However, if you've spent time using HTML+CSS, you are already familiar with the idea of laying things out on a screen. But what if that 'screen' was actually a video frame? With a timeline? Looking at the current frame number, you can now manipulate individual CSS properties with respect to time. And with some helper functions, you can use video/> and audio/> tags to embed rich media, and synchronise those to the frame number also. If you're like I was many years ago, your mind is now racing with possibilities of gameplay highlight reels and compiling birthday/wedding wish videos. But we can take this a step further, and push that whole pipeline up to the cloud. What kind of data is sitting in your database, with insights to pull out ever day? Could these be videos that you'd want to share to social media, without any oversight? ...would your users want to share these kind of videos, summarising their usage over the year? Let's get creative with that data! Let's define colour thresholds for stock performance, let's display emojis based on sentiment, let's compare stats across the database, and pipe this into AI to give each user a unique description for their behaviour. But most importantly, let's make this look so good you'll have people licking the pixels off their black mirrors 🤤

At first, when we heard that DDD Perth was held in a stadium, we thought there was no way that could be true. Turns out it is. Well done, Perth! Once we learned the truth of the matter, we just had to come and check it out ourselves and share our zombie sock love. Yeah, we love zombies if the name didn't give it away. And we love our zombie sock merch. That, plus, our co-CEO Paul loves to hear himself talk and our other one, Demelza, loves a stage.

DDD Perth embodies everything we believe in at MakerX - making technology accessible, fostering diversity, and building high-performing teams. These aren't just ideals we talk about; they're the proven foundation of successful technology companies.The conference itself is a masterclass in bringing people together. With 1,600 passionate technologists gathering in one place, we're witnessing real-time ecosystem building - where today's attendees become tomorrow's co-founders, where nervous first-time speakers evolve into industry leaders, and where casual conversations spark the collaborations that define our tech future. At MakerX, we know that helping our partners succeed requires more than writing code. It's about weaving together culture, connections, and capabilities - transforming research breakthroughs and bold ideas into sustainable businesses that create real impact. That's exactly what DDD Perth facilitates at scale and we're proud to be onboard to support the event for another year.
