Virtual production (VP) is seeing a growing presence in educational settings, spurred by ongoing advancements and increased investments in the technology. Kieran Phillips, the Director of Sales and Marketing at CJP Broadcast Service Solutions, features in the Sound & Video Contractor Virtual Production eBook, discussing the role CJP has played in this evolution, sharing their expertise with various educational projects.

CJP has successfully completed numerous high-profile projects, such as the creation of VP studios at the University of Sunderland, the University of the Creative Arts, and Southampton Solent University. These projects provide students with the latest VP technology, equipping them with the skills necessary for future careers in the media industry. Phillips notes that these installations offer crucial technical training while also fostering creativity and interdisciplinary collaboration.

Phillips underscores that “these university facilities prepare media students for careers by giving them access to the tools they will be using in the professional world. But their influence is bigger than that: they introduce other disciplines to new forms of creativity which can have a transformative effect on their specialist fields.” By providing access to advanced VP tools and comprehensive training, CJP is bridging the gap between academia and the professional world, ensuring students are well-equipped to meet the challenges of modern production environments.
