CVP to host second annual Education Festival

Reseller and provider of professional video and broadcast solutions CVP has announced that the Education Festival will return for a second year.

Building on the success of its inaugural event in November 2023, the three-day event is scheduled to take place from Tuesday 5 November to Thursday 7 November, offering educational institute leaders and their students access to tools and insights designed to support learning and enhance the skills needed for careers in the media and entertainment sector.

The CVP Education Festival 2024 is designed to showcase the latest advancements in production gear while providing a series of creative and technical workshops tailored to inspire and educate attendees.

Participants will have the opportunity to engage with leading brands such as ARRI, Cooke, Sony, RED, Blackmagic and Canon and industry experts from diverse roles and backgrounds, fostering a dynamic environment for learning and networking.

Event Highlights Include:

• Expert-Led Seminars: Gain valuable insights from industry professionals covering a wide range of topics, including virtual production, lighting, stabilisation, motion, and lens maintenance.
• Interactive Workshops: Participate in sessions designed to not only demonstrate equipment capabilities but also to empower attendees with the knowledge and skills necessary to maximise these tools effectively.
• Hands-On Demonstrations: Experience the cutting-edge production equipment firsthand through interactive demonstrations.

Spread across four locations in London — CVP’s Fitzrovia Showroom, the CVP | ARRI Creative Space, RED London Showroom, and Cooke London Showroom — the festival provides the perfect platform to explore, learn, and connect with peers and industry leaders.
