From new facilities taking shape at our headquarters to a partnership announcement with Grass Valley, October has been a month of progress at CJP. We’re also sharing fresh insights into virtual production design, and how our visit to Manchester for the KitPlus show went.
Strengthening Systems Integration Through Partnership
CJP’s latest announcement marks our new partnership with Grass Valley as both a Systems Integration Partner and AMPP Partner. The collaboration expands the technology available within our projects, combining trusted broadcast solutions with flexible hybrid and virtual production systems.
With access to Grass Valley’s full product range, including the Agile Media Processing Platform (AMPP), CJP continues to deliver adaptable, future-ready systems designed to meet the needs of modern production.
Designing Virtual Production Studios That Work
Our latest blog explores what really defines a successful virtual production studio, from planning the physical space to aligning technology with creative workflows. It highlights how every detail contributes to creating an environment that’s flexible, reliable, and ready for future growth.
Drawing on CJP’s experience designing studios for education, broadcast, and corporate clients, the article looks at how thoughtful integration ensures every system performs seamlessly from day one.
Expanding Facilities at CJP HQ
Work is underway transforming another facility at CJP Broadcast’s headquarters into a dedicated Demo Editing and Grading Suite.
The space will feature Blackmagic Design DaVinci Resolve, Studio Network Solutions’ EVO 16-Bay Storage with Slingshot and Nomad workflows, and Adobe software. Once complete, the suite will enhance CJP’s in-house demonstration facilities, providing an additional environment for client training and system testing.
Highlights from KitPlus Manchester
The CJP team was in MediaCity on 6 November for the KitPlus Show, where we demonstrated how integrated virtual production and broadcast systems can elevate creative workflows.
Our stand featured the SNS EVO Suite, QuickLink StudioEdge, and a 2m x 2m 1.9mm AOTO LED volume, giving visitors a hands-on look at the technology behind production environments.
Thank you to everyone who came and spoke with us about how CJP’s systems design and integration expertise can help enhance future projects. If you missed us at the show and would like to discuss your next installation, contact us >
