TheWrap’s sixth annual Grill conference is finally here, opening today at 3 p.m. PT in Beverly Hills with Maker Studios CEO Ynon Kreiz and Brian Robbins, the CEO of AwesomenessTV discussing the rising profile of online video.

The interview comes as Robbins announces a new deal with Endemol Shine to expand its teen presence internationally.

This year’s conversation about the converging worlds of entertainment, media and technology features a stunning lineup of thought leaders and disrupters, including A+E Networks CEO Nancy Dubuc; Oscar-winning producer Brian Grazer; leading technology investor Chris Sacca; actress and activist Maria Bello and others.

We will be debating cord-cutting, the future of moviegoing, what the top media financiers are thinking, the latest products and research in consumers’ choices, attention span and their use of social media to make decisions.

Plus, as the video above indicates – we’ll be showing off a drone and how it is revolutionizing production at all levels of the entertainment industry.

See welcome message from CEO and Founder Sharon Waxman and special guest — a Drone:
