Hollywood has been innovating for over a hundred years, and storage has been along for the ride. With the onset of the digitization of film, moving from HD to 8K and eventually 16K film, file sizes are soaring! A film that once generated 112GB an hour may soon reach 86TB. Therefore storage has leaped to the forefront of film, becoming a critical factor in how movies are archived, streams are stored, and how much broadcasts and movies will cost.
