House Director and Twitter Angel Investor Greg Yaitanes To Disrupt SF

5759421578_852c7ea8d6_oWe are incredibly excited to announce our next special guest for this year's Disrupt SF. On top of directing the most popular TV show on the planet, House, Greg Yaitanes is an early investor in Twitter, Square, and Pintrist. Yaitanes made waves in hollywood, leveraging cutting edge applications and applying lean startup principals to revolutionize television production. He is easily one of the most disruptive, tech-savvy minds in entertainment.For instance, he sparked a cottage industry of light-weight professional cameras after using a simple SLR to record a season finale ofHouse. Now, with a new show at HBO/Cinemax, he's on a mission to prove that technology can make high-quality televsion cost-effective enough to compete with the current cultural waste-land of cheap reality-show TV. From using Google maps to remotely scout shoot locations to replacing DVDs with an iPad app, iAnnotate, Yaitanes has plugged himself into the most successful startups to gain an early vantage of upcoming tech.
