Dale Herigstad
CCO, Schematic
Among the world’s most influential thinkers on interactive television, convergence and emerging media, Dale Herigstad is the Emmy-winning Chief Creative Officer at Los-Angeles based Schematic. With 30 years of broadcast and interactive design experience, Mr Herigstad is a driving force behind the convergence of enhanced and interactive television, broadband networks, emerging wireless media and the Internet.
A leader in interactive television development, Mr Herigstad has pioneered spatial navigation interfaces and enhanced programming for many network, studios and properties, including Sony, CSI and Turner Classic Movies. He has also designed more than 15 network broadcast packages, including directing and designing the on-air graphics for three Winter Olympics broadcasts on CBS, each of which earned him an Emmy. He won his fourth Emmy on behalf of Schematic in 2005 for his contribution to the Cablevision iO digital cable service.
Pioneer inventor of more natural ways to communicate within the media eco-systems that increasingly define our worlds, Mr Herigstad is now working with research and development teams to redefine the way in which we interact with our digital screens. His vision of our collective digital future includes the near-term emergence of gestural navigation--even brain wave communication. And he was part of the conceptual group imagining the gestural interfaces in Minority Report.
Mr Herigstad has served on the board of directors for both the Broadcast Designers Association and the Interactive Television Alliance. He has been active with the AFI Enhanced TV Workshop for many years, and has taught design, information architecture, and animation at UCLA, the California Institute of the Arts and Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. Mr Herigstad is also a fellow at Ball State University, working closely with the school’s user experience testing labs. Dale has an MFA degree from California Institute of the Arts.
