AV SuperFriends: Off the Rails - Take the classroom and cut off the class
Manage episode 415296809 series 2805837
Recorded April 17, 2024
Rather than a single news story, we cover a handful of product announcements from (and prior to) NAB. Blackmagic announced a bunch of SMPTE 2110 devices (sorta), Osbot has an NDI adapter that goes the wrong way, Cleanfeed is now supporting video (yea!), and PTZ Optics has an entire software production suite for their cameras.
Then, we get into One Button Studios. Please don’t build these. There’s too many compromises and the experience is terrible. What people really want are “Self-service studios” that fit existing (and supported) campus workflows. Sure, you can build unicorns, but please stop. Also, if you do build one, it had better well use only one button. One of the AV SuperFriends works at a campus with a nominal one button studio that has a seven page instruction guide…
Finally, Chris shares his concept of designing AV systems out of spite. Some might call it malicious AV integration, but it’s more of an opportunity to streamline and improve general classrooms.
