Pixel Academy, tvONE Host Master Stack Events for Live AV Production Training
tvONE and Green Hippo's Pixel Academy are hosting two 'Master Stack' events in July 2026, bringing together various AV and live production brands. These events offer hands-on training for industry professionals on integrating modern live production technologies, including IPMX and ST 2110 transport, DMX, and network design. The showcase focuses on practical workflows across the entire AV chain.
Key Takeaways
- Pixel Academy's 'Master Stack' events are scheduled for July 14-15, 2026, in Maidenhead, UK.
- The program covers modern production workflows including IPMX and ST 2110 transport, DMX, unified control, LED fundamentals, and network design.
- Key partners include MA Lighting, B-Tech AV Mounts, Densitron, Lumens, Matrox Video, NETGEAR, and Vantix Displays.
- Events are limited to 15 attendees per day to ensure direct engagement and access to specialists.
Why It Matters
The focus on integrated workflows for IPMX and ST 2110 signals a continued industry shift towards IP-based production. Providing hands-on training for these standards is critical for engineers and technical staff to manage increasingly complex live AV environments. The boutique format suggests a high-value training opportunity for specific roles, underlining the need for specialized knowledge in IP media transport. Keep an eye on similar collaborative training initiatives as IP adoption accelerates across live production.
Additional Context
The upcoming Pixel Academy Master Stack events align with a broader industry push for education in IP-based media. SMPTE notably runs a "ST 2110 Boot Camp," with a June 2026 cohort, offering an intensive 13-week program to accelerate the transition from SDI to ST 2110 workflows (per SMPTE, June 2026). This program emphasizes practical skills, including PTP timing, network design, and operational change management. Similarly, Evolve Technology hosted an ST 2110 event in April 2026 during NAB, providing a hands-on experience of IP-based live event workflows with partners like Disguise and Panasonic (per Evolve Technology, April 2026). Green Hippo, a Pixel Academy partner, also launched specific Hippotizer media server training courses at Pixel Academy in April 2026, emphasizing hands-on creativity and real-world technology (per TPi Magazine, March 2026). These parallel efforts highlight a significant industry-wide training demand as companies and professionals adapt to evolving production standards and technologies.
