AVIXA, the leading association for the AV industry, is taking significant strides in promoting equity within the field. Their efforts are geared towards creating a more inclusive and diverse industry landscape, ensuring equal opportunities for all professionals.

One impactful initiative by AVIXA is their campaign to celebrate International Women’s Day. By highlighting and honoring women in the industry, they are already making a positive impact. Recognizing the existing inequities is a crucial step towards bringing about change.

To facilitate a more equitable AV industry, AVIXA emphasizes the importance of understanding and promoting equity. This involves implementing diverse and inclusive hiring processes that actively address bias in recruitment, promotions, and other aspects of employment.

Acknowledging that each employee starts from a different place, AVIXA aims to provide tailored support and resources. Creating a comprehensive research database, complete with roadmaps and real-life examples, would enable businesses to implement tangible changes within their workplaces. AVIXA members can access these resources, supporting equitable practices at the corporate level.

By actively championing equity, AVIXA is paving the way for a more inclusive AV industry, where all individuals can thrive and contribute to its growth and success.

How might Avisa help facilitate a more equitable AV industry? So of course Avisa is currently playing a key role. In promoting equity in the industry. Through the campaign that we're doing here today to celebrate the international woman's day, can make a good impact in the industry already. Improving equity requires acknowledgement of the inequities faced in the industry. Some ways to change this is to understand and promote the importance of equity, prioritize diverse, inclusive hiring processes. The industry need to make a conscious effort to identify and to address the bias. Whether it is in hiring, recruiting, or in the promotions. In order to make a change, we need to recognize the difference in where each in employee starts from, and then we can start to make the adjustments needed to meet the needs of each individual. I would love to see a vixen create a database of research and it's included road maps and examples of ways businesses can make tangible changes within their workplace, making it easier for Vixon members to get by and at their corporate level.

Transcoding moves to the cloud. Intercom, tally and shading stay at the venue

Transcoding moves to the cloud. Intercom, tally and shading stay at the venue

Vendors draw the same line: transcoding and graphics move to the cloud, while intercom, tally and camera shading stay on site. Riedel says the connection back to on-site talent, cameras, tally and IFB can still undermine the production or the business case. Hybrid looks like where things settle.

  • 01Dillon’s analysis suggests hybrid cloud-plus-venue production is where things settle, making on-site hardware for latency-bound work a long-term facility plan item.
  • 02Interoperability standards such as SMPTE ST 2110 and NMOS handle the plumbing. The question to put to vendors now is how their systems provision, configure, tear down and monitor services alongside other vendors' gear.
